Firearm Forum Question: G2 Research 45 ACP, R.I.P. Ammunition Recall

Ask A Firearms Question:
At the gun range the other day when a discussion came up about RIP 45 acp ammo and Glocks. What is going on? 
Thank you I Carry A Gun.

G2 Research Inc, 45 ACP R.I.P. Ammo ....

Answer :

Blog Administrator -
Yes this Ammunition (ammo) is on immediate Limited Recall.
R.I.P. 45 acp in manufactured by G2 Research Inc. and apparently has issues when shot through any Glock 45 acp caliber handgun.
See photos above.

This RECALL was issued by G2 on December 3, 2014 as a post on their Facebook Page. The ammo in question from G2 Research was manufactured between July 1, 2014 and November 30, 2014. If you have any G2 Ammo in 45acp check the dates on the inside of the ammo box. G2 Research is marketing this as a Limited Recall because G2 claims it only affects Glocks in 45 ACP Caliber.
This Ammo Recall for G2 Research, R.I.P. 45 ACP Ammunition could cause 'Excessive Chamber Pressure' in all Glocks manufactured for 45 acp caliber.
Non Legalize this simply means that if you shoot this 45 ACP Caliber Ammo in any Glock your gun could go Kaboom (blow up in your face).

If you have any of this ammo you can call G2 Research in the USA at -
678 . 533 . 2033 Ext 4

Email G2 Research at -
info@g2rammo.com

Commentary -

A Glock Handgun is one of the finest most durable handguns made in the world today. Glocks are carried by Law Enforcement and Military around the world. For any ammo to affect a Glock is a sure warning NOT to purchase from that manufacturer. It is always better to err on the side of caution.
Further G2 has shown arrogance in issuing this Recall Notice on Facebook. They assume every gun owner has a Facebook Page, and that is not only arrogant it is out right poor judgement.

==> My recommendation on ALL G2 Research Ammo is -
a NO BUY.

Firearm Forum Question: What Does it Mean When a Firearm Discharges Out-of-Battery

Ask A Firearms Question:
What Does it Mean When a Gun Discharges Out of Battery? 
Thank you The Patriot Train.

Answer :

Blog Administrator -
This is when a Firearm discharges (fires) when the slide or bolt is not fully closed. This can result in the firearm exploding sending shrapnel flying everywhere injuring or killing the user (shooter), and any bystanders to close.
See photos below ....



Colt M16A2 Commando ....

FN 5.7x28mm FN Herstal Handgun that apparently used reloaded but faulty ammunition ....

Firearm Forum Question: Kimber 84M Bolt Action Rifle Recall Notice

Ask A Firearms Question:
Whats up with the Kimber Model 84M Bolt Action Rifle?
Thank you Ruddi James.

The Kimber Line of Model 84M Bolt Action Hunting and Target Rifles:
Mouse over, Click on image to enlarge ...

Answer :

Blog Administrator -
The Kimber 84M Bolt Action Rifle is under massive RECALL for a safety issue with the Bolt that could cause the rifle to discharge while in the safe mode.
Kimber refers to this as a malfunction, we consider this a serious safety issue and a bad design with poor quality management.
This is NOT Kimber's first Recall. They also had a Recall on their Solo Model Handgun, see Link below.

If your firearm serial number is listed contact Kimber immediately.

The suggested retail price ranges from $1,223.00 to $2,240.00 for this Rifle. At those prices better care and a superior product should be guaranteed to their customers. Add to the fact two Hunting Calibers are missing in choice for the buyer: The 30-06 and the 300 Win Mag.

a NO BUY.

Firearm Forum Question: Glock Voluntary Recall of Gen 4 Models 26, 27

Ask A Firearms Question:
I recently purchased a Baby Glock Gen 4, Model 26, 9mm and have been told there is a Recall on this handgun. What information do you?
Thank you Ben Coopersmith.

Baby Glock Model 26, Gen 4, 9mm Handgun ....

Glock Model 27, Gen 4, 40 Caliber Handgun ....

Answer :

Blog Administrator -
There is a Voluntary RECALL Notice out on Glock Models 26 and 27, Gen 4.
This Recall Notice addresses a problem with the RSA (Recoil Spring Assembly).
This only affects Glock 26 and 27 Gen 4 models sold before July 22, 2011.

If you have any questions about which model or time frame (dates) manufactured call Glock in the USA at:
