Slowmisses Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) During dryfire practice I have actually had this happen with dummy round, matchsaver and Beretta 1301. Both times the round was left between the frame and extractor, which was penetrating into the dummy primer (silicone). Both times scared the hell out of me and made me think if I should ever use matchsaver with a live round.

Cuz Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Holy thread revival Batman! But, it was a good read that I somehow missed back in 2013, so I’m glad it happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chriswakey Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I wonder how many times this has actually happened with a live round? And what the consequences were? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlhead Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 If you are going to necro a thread at least pull a better one back from the dark ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there is a 4 page thread about matchsaver detonation and in those 4 pages there no one has been able to to actually produce himself the situation. Then few years later there is some new information on this topic but it is not allowed to be discussed anymore because someone will be offended? By what? Could they just not open if they are not interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlhead Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Not offended, just not entertained. I have not seen a match saver detonation, nor ever spoken to anyone who has, or even read of anyone who has, did I miss it in this thread from 4 + years ago? I am not a match saver fan, I think they are stupid, but the chances of one going postal and killing the shooting buddy that I have that uses one is slim enough to risk. I bet that a loading port and a ham fisted quad is far more likely to cause a minor skin wound that becomes infected poses more risk than a match saver. Or someone could eat at Popeye's Chicken before a match and literally die in the blue plastic fortress of solitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAINY0DAYS Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I always roll the gun over out of habit when I port load anyway, so I let gravity prevent this from ever being an issue. I have never managed to get a shell stuck in the manner described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoKimberDave Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I found this interesting, as it had never occurred to me. Glad I read it. There is apparently a .000154 chance of getting dealt a royal straight flush. Yet, it has happened countless times. Not sure I would remove match saver, but I'll certainly be more careful!

Slowmisses Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I have had it happen with dummy rounds when rolling the gun over (ejection port facing up) and sweeping the round from Matchsaverz with strong hand. Have not yet happened with ejection port facing right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
