Just like any other dude on the internet, there isn't really a way of knowing if he's telling the truth or the whole truth. We don't know who he is or if he has some way of benefiting from making this up, or if he has made modifications to the gun and just doesn't want to admit it after this.
Ishared it because it seemed like important info and didn't appear to be complete fiction. Even if everything he says is true, it is a sample size of one so that doesn't mean there is necessarily a problem with the design of the Shadow Systems guns... but that doesn't mean there ISN'T a problem with the design either.
This was said previously, but as such a small manufacturer there just isn't any way they can compare with the testing that Glock does, not to mention all of the other testing Glocks have been through for contracts, department use, etc. The videos make it clear that they took care in ensuring the safety of the design, so hopefully this is just a one off.
I'm very interested to see if they respond about the Reddit post, and really hope they are able to get their hands on the pistol to figure out what happened.
*EDIT - he did state he has contacted the company and is going to send the gun in so they can take a look at it.
