Just when you think you've seen it all.

So obviously you can't just tap that out with a cleaning rod. Assuming you can't clear it from the chamber, how do you fix that?

Either that or "hold my beer; watch this."

Well, I have to admit, it happened to me once and the round wasnt loaded backwards. At one time I had a Kimber TLE stainless 1911 (notice I said HAD) . Firing it at my PD range and had a failure to eject, basically a horizontal stovepipe. I tapped, racked, and some how the next round came out of the mag, flipped and chambered. Lodged it in there pretty good. If it hadnt happened to me I wouldnt have believed it either.

I was thinking of something similar with weak mag springs I've encountered, which are generally in older mags that aren't tight to begin with. Highly unlikely, but I can see how it might happen. Granted, this was a newer gun, but a bad mag spring could allow for it to happen.

I currently manage a lgs, and yesterday a guy walks in with a Taurus PT111 with the following problem:

Solution is the throw the whole thing in the trash, but that's just me.

But they come with life time warranty so they must be good.

But but but… They come with a little key so you can lock them and make them inoperable? What could go wrong???

Worst cars always came with the best warranties for a reason.

Like some criminals, lock them up and throw away the key cuz they have no further use nor purpose in this world of men.
