They mentioned that the problem developed over time during training. I wonder what the round count was when they started experiencing the failures.
This is why you buy from a manufacturer known for quality control and putting out a good reliable product. Not the cheapest thing you can find.

Wow. I see they have decided to up the ante and step up to Rock River rifled from Adams. That should fix things right up.

The annual budget request is one of the few occasions sheriffs in Florida must seek county commission approval for any particular action. Commissioners approved his request - a 25% increase since 2011 - and raised property taxes to accommodate it.
A few weeks later, he spent a quarter of a million dollars for a no-bid purchase of rifles from Adams Arms, a company that employs former Sheriff Bob White, who was Pasco County’s sheriff from 2001 until 2011, a FOX 13 investigation has found.
PSO first purchased 65 rifles from Adams Arms in September 2013, records show.
White’s LinkedIn page lists his start date as a consultant for the Odessa-based company as September 2014; his Facebook page lists a June 1, 2014 start date. He did not respond to requests for an interview.
