I have a Israel Arms Internation model M-1 carbine. This guns receiever is supposed to be of new manufacture, with the rest of the rifles parts mil-spec. I bought the gun new this weekend.
Firing the gun at the range I had several round not fire ,light primers strikes. I also had one round that I think may have fire out of battery. The rounds primer was blown and had light fouling on the sides of the case and also on the next round in the mag. In firing 100 rnds of Pmc 110 ball ammo the gun only did this once,but its got me thinking. Does this sound like the headspace is off? Could this just be bad ammo?
