Was shooting API ammo out of my 82A1 and had round 9 bullet blow up upon exiting the muzzle.
No damage to the brake. I didn't know what happened until a friend mentioned he saw a flash. We found a large piece of jacket 75 yards down range. In the video watch the puff on the 9th shot.

So have you tallied the cash you burned up in that little flurry? (laughen)

I'd love an 82 but my wallet can't support one.

Only a buck? That surprises me a bit, I would have guessed quite a bit more than that. Still even at a buck a round I personally wouldn't have very many 100 round days with it.
