I came across a case of 9MM 124gr +P Ranger Partition Gold ammo. I know this ammo is no longer in production but has anyone done or seen valid tests of this ammo? What was the result?

Part number 60020
I use these for pocket carry as well as range use and in loose fitting pants they work OK.

IIRC the "desensitizing" was in an AR where the repeated "tapping" of the primer by the firing pin eventually cracked the primer pellet. Bullet set back and possibly burrs on the case rim from the...
Wayne, I haven't seen the FBI video but I would like to. Do you have a link?
The video was done as part of a consulting job I did investigating a different Glock function. The "bounce" was an incidental observation. I don't own the rights to the work product so I can't...
Sorry I am late to the party but I have had this type of jam with several Glocks. See if the extractor has a sharp edge on the bottom. I have had to stone several extractors. The top of the case...

Sorry, a bit late to this thread. One thing to keep in mind is heavier bullets are usually more efficient in shorter barrels because they have less powder to burn. Over the past several years, I...
A small Philips screw driver works very well for replacing the rebound spring.
Push the tip of the screw driver into the end of the spring with one of the flutes lined up with the top of the frame...
Eezox has worked really well for me for rust prevention. It is also a decent lube and cleaner. I've used it since 1996.
