I shoot a lot without shooting glasses on I guess because i just forget to put them on or maybe because Im just stupid?
Well after yesterday i will never shoot without them again.
I was shooting my ar15 and noticed the magazine of xm193 i just put in was suddenly louder than the the previous box,ever noticed this with xm193?I have a few times.maybe a little hotter loads or something?
The third shot with this magazine sprayed me with shrapnell on the right side of my face and lucky for me this was one of those smarter days for me that I had shooting glasses on because it left marks on the lenses.
I checked the barrel and there was no sign of blockage or anything and the next 100 rounds were just fine but when i got home there was a lot of brass in the trigger area which is probably what me in the face.
It only takes one time to lose an eye and can happen with the same ammo you have shot thousands of rounds of.
I love xm193 ammo and will use it forever but will also use it with glasses on.
I should also add that Im left handed and shooting a right handed rifle though so kinda leaves you on the wrong side of the rifle.
anyone else ever have this happen with lake city xm193?
