[QUOTE="rlongnt, post: 3078499, member: 665"] Thanks, that's good info. "Both the XM17 and XM18 pistols experienced double‑ejections where an unspent ball round was ejected along with a spent round. Due to the increased frequency of occurrence during Product Verification Test (PVT), the Army stood up a root cause analysis team to identify the cause of the double ejections in parallel with continued PVT. As of this report, this analysis is still ongoing." That will be interesting info when it comes out. I'd imagine its something with the new heavy ammo and mag combo but who knows.. I go way out of my way to make sure my Sig P226 & P229 Mags are Mec-Gar or Sig Branded made by Mec-Gar and not the US ones that look like they've been spray painted. [/QUOTE]
