      Where's the like button when you need one? Agree completely!

        You would've thought that with said improvements that would've been a added feature just like other forums have, a THANKS or LIKE option has been mentioned in the past.

          "Like" buttons promote popularity contests. You can go to FB for that.

            Gun forums are a man's FB.

              ...without the drama, which is exactly why we don't need to emulate other social media.

                Nothing wrong with just saying "Thanks" or "I like that".

                  I agree and it's more genuine than clicking a button.

                  We now return you to your regularly scheduled program. Pardon the thread drift.

                      Does anyone see a recoil spring in the OP's photo. I don't . Maybe my eyes but I see the barrel recoil rod but no spring.

                      Like others hard to see any broken plastic.

                          That would make it the first.

                              Recoil spring was found. The guide rod was massively ate up from the spring. Theres a slight bulge at the top of the chamber where it looks like the bullet was aimed up when it went off. I'll take more photos when I have a chance and post them up.

                              As far as injury, Pieces of the grip blew off into hand, some burn on hand, and where plate blew out scraped the index finger nicely, with just a little powder burn on my face.

                                Your guide rod being round is like everyones guide rod. Little roll topped ripples , not a big deal. I have a 1000 rounds now thru my tp40 with some very hot underwood loads and it like my cw have a wavy guide rod with around 1600+. If it fired with a round in transition from ramp to chamber its an ammo issue . High primer struck buy the breach face and fired ?
