So I went onto a local Dunhams sports store and proceeded to buy a few things , new iwb, some 7.62x54r ( gotta feed the nagant) and 2 boxes of american eagle 9mm. I get home and open the boxes to inspect them, 1 box looks fine and shiny brass no defects ect, the 2nd looks like someone bought a box then returned it with reloads some were new and shiny but others were dirty with fingerprints, all cases are stamped fc so they all match but I just cant understand the dirty fingerprinted cases.. will post pics. if these are reloads wtf is the person thinking?? someone whom wouldnt think noting of the oddities and just put em in and shooth their gun! what if there loaded hot or worse, what if someone intentionally over loaded these or used the wrong powder? the scenarios are endless. needles to say ive contacted the manager (he is a fellow gun enthusiast ) he fully understood my concern and will exchange the ammo for me , and I believe I heard him say he will inspect all the other ammo as well and expressed his concerns about it and the safety to his customers. sounds like he is a stand up guy and is willing to work with me, lots of box stores wouldnt! so I commend Dunhams sports for making things right! .. will post pics in a bit!
... side note the dirty casings also have marks in them from being fired and there are a few with fingerprints in them as well.
