Just a little news item that I thought would be of interest to Freeperland. (I am not Mr Grayson, BTW.)

I'll have to admit the title caught my attention right quick. Doesn't involve any I have however.
Thanks for info.

I have about 300 rounds of Federal Hydro-Shok’s. The part # is P45HS1. I can’t find any lot numbers on the boxes. I think that they are OK. Three boxes are at least 5 years old, the rest are new. I hope that they are OK because they were on backorder for 13 months.

Maybe I’ll just give the folks at Federal a ringy-dingy. I shoot 1911’s and I’m kind of funny about them.

I file down my .45 ammo to fit my .40.

I've only died a little.

If you shot one round and the pistol is intact, you are probably good to go.

Truth be told, I cant imagine a 45 acp round blowing up a 1911

45 acp is a pretty low velocity round and the 1911 is mighty stout.

Has anyone ever seen a 1911 go kaboom EVER?
Glocks go kaboom. 1911’s dont.

Glock wallows out the feed ramp to aid in flawless feed of the ammo.
This leaves part of the case unsupported by the chamber and could result in case blow out with a hot round.

I have seen this happens a few times.
The case blows out at the rim, but it doesnt kaboom the pistol.
