Strictly conjecture on my part, but I'd guess "handloaded ammo with a high primer leading to a slamfire".Factory Wincheester ammo and a brand new Garand. Training by a former Marine.

How’d it fail? Chamber blow up, back end of the receiver pop off, or something else?

Brand new Garand?
Like one of those modern reproductions or an original never before fired?
