Well... in the "traditional sense" when talking OOB ignition in an AR... in a properly functioning rifle... it's darn near impossible since the bolt is not fully compressed and won't allow the firing pin to extend far enough to ignite a primer.Had same thing with Remington ammo an a palmetto. They ignored me an said ARs can't have a OOB ..I call BS
OK... yeah... that's fubar'ed!!
Yup ..I always play dumb then rip em a new bubblegum with proof.. speaking of that I'm due to leave more blown up AR reviews for them. The AR isn't pleasant in detonation..AK just belly's out an put a top cover into your foreheadWell... in the "traditional sense" when talking OOB ignition in an AR... in a properly functioning rifle... it's darn near impossible since the bolt is not fully compressed and won't allow the firing pin to extend far enough to ignite a primer.
There are variations of OOB ignitions though. IE., slam fires, high primer ignitions, extended extractor issues, and so on that are not really the same.. by definition... but the end result is the same. Ignition outside of full battery.
So... they were kinda telling the truth, but not "exactly".
My Internet Guess is simple - over-loaded ammo.Guy on another forum posted this. What could have caused this?

From the pic the bolt looks like it may have survived.Ammo, Inc.
Yourboltcarrier is no more.
That's what I thought. The bolt looks to be in pretty decent shape... until you see the carrier.From the pic the bolt looks like it may have survived.
To me the lack of damage to the bolt and amount of damage to the carrier tells me the round was not fully in battery. Could have been bullet seated too long to chamber or possibly a chamber obstruction from a previous round like the bullet jacket in video linked above or even a loose previously blown out primer.My Internet Guess is over-loaded ammo.
The extractor ripped the case open because the bolt was being driven back too soon while case was still expanding in the chamber.
