What would a squib do in an auto subgun, or full on machine gun? I'm guessing it would likely not work the action so no kablooey, but with folks claiming a squib operated their action...would it depend upon caliber and thus bolt type? A locking bolt in a higher powered cartridge seems like it's just too much for a squib, but on say a 25acp when it's basically all primer and no powder, it's very conceivable that it would operate a simple blowback. Also for 32acp or 380. Get to 9mm and the locking bolt comes into play.
