Mr. Murphy was in town today!!
We "think" Winchester White Box 9mm 115gr JHP Personal Protection Lot # 25VF**
We do not have the last 2 numbers, boxes were tossed into burning barrel and this is all I could make out.
Single Mom of two, Glock 26 her CCW gun. These loads were in her gun and she has been carrying these loads. Also in Spare Mags.
She has run at least 400 rds of these loads - including the 3 mags she uses for spares, and the two others she keeps for backup, general principle. She bought 2 more boxes of these right after she had run these test loads with NO problems at all.
She then went on to test other Ammo choices, Hydra-Shocks, Speer Gold Dots, etc. My idea to test and know for sure. That "not be tied to one" bit.
Okay, so in the course of Shooting Carry Loads, as we all do in the course of Inspect and Maintain weekly, or when exposed to elements and such...she will load up with fresh ammo and keep the old carry loads (chambered / rechambered) for range ammo.
Ammo is kept in a cool dry place.
Cars need fixing, kids get sick, holidays happen...and since 400+ plus tested great of this WWB JHP she will use this instead of buying some of her Preferred Carry Ammo. I mean she just needs to get by until everything settles and ...
Click! That is the loudest sound one never wants to hear!
She immediatly did a Tap,Rack, Bang..
Click!
Rack slide- Drops mag, inserts spare mag, grasps slide, lets fly...
Click!
Mommie- Whats wrong?
I flat lied to this child. " Mom is doing some new stuff, it is okay". I lied because I did not want this child to have any fears, I will not go into background, just besides being a Mom, this child and the other one needs to feel safe with Mom's guns working. Kids are okay and understand CCW firearms...firearms safety and such.
Mom has gone forward, kicked the target in the gonads and sliced its throat with her Benchmade.
Mom is shaking, the pit of my stomach has a knot, and "I could have"
"Don't go there yet".
NOT the Gun. Gun fired the Blazer, Fiocchi, and my Old carry ammo we had.
Tried this WWB JHP ammo in another Glock 17, nope. Glock 17 ran with everything else fine.
Mr. Murphy Tainted the CCW ammo. Life happens, it sucks, still it happens.
I inserted this bad ammo ammo into my Keltec P-11, which has a hammer, not striker fired.
First pull of trigger "click" second pull "bang", sometimes it took 4 pulls of trigger for this ammo to fire.
At this point - forget malf drills, we just wanted this ammo used up.
Her gun never missed a beat with Blazer, Fiochhi, loadings I had brought. Nor did her gun have a problem with her older Premium Loading removed, or my Older CCW loads.
For safety/ peace of mind she has since run by the gunsmith, Glocks are both fine.
Her gun has tested 150 rds of Fed 124 Hydra-Shock, that is what I had in mine. I let her shoot my Carry mag and spare mags of these in her gun- no problems. So she loaded up her gun and spare mag with the one extra box I had of these in the truck.
I am not going to let a mom with one child with her, be without CCW ammo. She was going to get the other kid and return her dad's Glock 17.
I was CCW-ing with Fiochhi FMJ until I got home to change my CCW loads.
...and believe me, shooting that child's .22 rifle was some great stress relief for us all. Oh the kid had fun, kid just does not fully understand how her rifle really helped Mom.

This lady is waiting for a OLDer J frame to come her way. "I understand why folks carry a second gun,and why often it is a revolver".
I called my gunbuddy and suggested he tell the fella to hurry up and bring that J- frame up - or I/ we were going to come pick it up!
Check your CCW loads, inspect and maintain, never be complacent. Have a plan, another plan, another...
Hell hath no fury like a single mom, with a Glock that goes Click, that can make use of her foot and knee, and carries a Benchmade.
