@Kruel J well say what ya want of the company but apparently the owner did not get injured nor did the carbine blow up
Could be an out of spec barrel, could be crap reloads going far too slow (squibs) or whoever made the ammo forgot to put in enough powder.... these look like either hardcast lead, or partially jacketed rounds.
Poking ya cuz we all know how ya feel about Hi Point although I'm honestly surprised that the carbine only needed a rebarrel to be done to it.. one would think they'd at least replace recoil springs and check bolt face for signs of overpressureHow about NOT calling me out on a thread I'm not participating in eh? I've already stated I have nothing more to say about HP.
Very true! I've seen some barrels get stuffed and sometimes the damage is far more than just the barrelI'm glad nobody got hurt.
Damn, amazing that the thing did not blow and hurt the shooter.These people vote and procreate. Lol

Here is a similar event but using an AR9 pistol I think. 22 squibs in the 14.5" JP Enterprise pin-weld barrelI have to believe this was staged i.e. The shooter used handloads with decreasing powder loads to stack that barrel. Any other explanation just seems unlikely.
Well, since they don't give any explanation as to how someone could fire 22 squibs in a row without figuring out something was wrong, yeah i'm going to call this one staged as well.Here is a similar event but using an AR9 pistol I think. 22 squibs in the 14.5" JP Enterprise pin-weld barrel
22 squibs in one barrel. New record? -
Seems the AR9 also operates on straight blowback... unless you believe this is also staged?
