Hey guys a buddy of mine was out shooting a brand new AR-15 the other day with brand new factory Remington ammo. First 30 round mag was smooth, then bang, bang, and then rifle blows up. The upper was of unknown make, but either 5.56 or .223, and ammo was brand new Remington .223 ammo. They stated all projectiles had left the barrel, so I don't think this was caused by a blockage. Seems to me the case head just gave way. Would love to hear thoughts on this.
No signifcant injuries, minor cuts on chin and face from p-mag blowing as seen in pics. P-mag still seems functional believe it or not even though its missing some plastic. Upper sustained minor damage, no damage to lower at all. Upper will be thrown out.
