    Another newbie question. Fired a couple primers

    Yeah I realize it’s a tiny explosion. But didn’t know it blows out the sides like that. I could see a tiny gas trail going straight out when I fired. Which was the exact spot where the side of the caps let go. Just wanted to hear it’s normal. Thanks Wardawg

I actually have a true story about an AK , BF Clp , a chicken coop and a rogue gun smith in the state of Kansas . But that for another day. It cleans ok. It’s not like a good...
