When I look at the pictures on the web site from my tiny Sony Laptop screen, it's hard to see any details, but I was able to download the pictures of the brass and the gun and then open them with another program and zoom in on them for a closer look.
The brass shows a bit of pressure, with mildly flattened primers, but when I look at the gun it almost looks like the chamber failed and just blew out through the ejection port opening. I've seen a lot of damaged guns but never one that looks like this before. Do you have all the pieces? It would be interesting to see the small pieces.

".....loaded to maximum SAAMI+P pressures....."
WOW!!! Sounds like a 50AE+P load similar to the "hot" 9mm+P (et al the "hot" +P loads that we are familiar with). I have never heard of a 50AE+P load before. If that is what these guys are claiming. Add this to the fact that the chamber of the AMT-V is thin-walled***, and I can see how this could have happened. (***This was pointed out to me by someone shortly after I bought my AMT-V, before I had a chance to shoot it. Ever since then I have never even wanted to shoot it.) Sorry about your -V. I wonder how "violent" these would feel in the Desert Eagle? |

I would shoot it in a DE after checking each round in a go/no go type gauge. Pretty sure the only way it would damage an Eagle is if it fired out of battery.
Even then, might only blow the mag out the bottom. Actually had that happen w/ an STI 2011 in .38super(also cracked the plastic grip frame). |

Maybe they will come out with some Chamber Safe ammo.

So if it makes it out of the chamber without blowing apart, you should be good to go???
 I'm still surprised by how badly this gun failed and there were no injuries. I'm thinking I wont be shooting one,,, I've put many heavy loaded rounds through a DE and not even a hint of a problem, this is a troubling situation. GH |
