As luck would have it, I ran across this little pic and article in the April 56 issue of American Rifleman. Misfire was Mr. Lang"s story, which I don't believe, as earlier USGI FMJ ammo (38 Special) had a habit of sticking bullets in barrels. This is the reason the military went with shorter and lighter FMJ bullets in their 38 Special ammo.
This just illustrates how easy it is to stick jacketed bullets in handgun barrels with low pressure ammo. Mr. Lang qualifies for a "Dumb ***" award, although some what belated. Jeeze, he didn't know anything was wrong, until he couldn't see the front sight!
I don't think even Tim could fix the barrel on this S&W M&P/Victory Model.
