searched and found nothing.
I have a G26 that is a car gun until i get a suitable IWB holster for carry. Granted once i get that holster the gun will still spend time in my car while at work, places that prohibit ccw, etc.
My question is as follows:
The inside of my car gets fairly warm during the day. Especially in the summer time. I keep my G26 in the center console and have found that sometimes when i get back in my car after it has been sitting for a while that the gun is very warm to the touch.
Since i keep one in the chamber I am curious if it is possible for the inside of the car to get hot enough to create a condition where the round would discharge on its own. We have discussed what happens when a round is thrown into a fire, round pops off but doenst do much because the explosion is not directed. Whereas, if the round in the chamber discharges it would essentially be just like pulling the trigger.
Would it be possible if the conditions were just right that the gun would discharge the first round and continue to cycle? Or would it have to be extremely hot for this to happen?
The last thing i want to find when i get off work is that i have a new drainage hole in the bottom of my center console. Not to mention that would be a fun one to try and explain to both my coworkers and law enforcement.
any thoughts?
