POTD: Squib Round Stuck in Polish P-64 Pistol!.Recall Notice: Winchester and Browning 9mm Ammo.See below for the previous articles detailing the original Winchester and Browning recall, as well as coverage of squib situations that TFB has published previously. Attempting to fire another round through a barrel obstructed by a squib can cause a catastrophic failure during which the gun could potentially blow up in the shooter’s hand. This can cause what is known as a “squib load”, which means that the bullet may not have enough force behind it to exit the firearm’s muzzle. The 115-grain rounds in question, manufactured for these brands in East Alton, Illinois by the Olin Corporation, are subject to a factory defect causing the powder to burn improperly. Use the minimum oil in the action.TFB recently reporting on the announcement of a safety recall for certain lots of Winchester and Browning 9mm ammunition. It best to blow out the barreled action with Gun Scrub or brake cleaner than take the thing apart. Different tightness can shift the group a little. Always be sure up return the forearm screw the same with unglassed firearms. You can glass under the forearm screw and float the barrel and tighten up the group. I have found that, on a hole, the 100 guns were more accurate than the Rem auto. At the time it was put on the market, the Rem Auto in. What killed the gun was the short action. Once these are cleared up, you have a fine rifle/carbine! The firing pin problem thats been discussed (mainly due to having to dry fire the empty gunto uncock it), the problems on the disconnecter on the trigger on a soft pull, and the fact that some of the cocking handles flew off due to a poor weld. The Mod 100 rifles were, and are, great firearms.with the exception of three problems. Loaded the clip, jacked a round in, settled on the bench, and squeezed the dumped all 4 rounds, rock and roll! After everybody was finished, I pulled out a new Mod 100 carbine in. When I was with Win-Wes I helped put on the sight-in day at the Macon, Georgia Gun Club.
