Doofus-ness on Steroids Part 2
This one isn't quite as bad as the one I posted on the Garand forum.
Once again, crap ammo although this time on a rifle that was about to fail. There are reasons they went to the round bolt and mitigating cracks was one of the reasons. Carbines are ammo picky and the fellow in the video knows (or implies he knows) that a case not trimmed to the right length can result in out of battery fire, though this was not the cause of this failure.
The owner of the carbine also seems to think he has an unmodified IBM, well, not with that M2 stock. I may be wrong but it would also seem that if the Carbine came from the factory with the adjustable sight it may well have come with the stronger round bolt. You carbine guys can chime in on that.
