[QUOTE="JD8, post: 1262080, member: 24"] Gonna say this again..... :D Here is a bolt over base malfunction. [attach=full]78617[/attach] I could be wrong but the pics look awfully close. as quoted from Hilton Yam "Type II, High Angle, view #1: This is also known as the "bolt over base" malfunction, and is the result of a mismatch between the rate of slide travel and magazine feed rate. In other words, the slide is moving faster than the magazine will present rounds up for feeding, and the result is that the front of the breech face has moved forward past the rear of the cartridge before picking it up. As in this photo, you will see the breech face pick up the cartridge in the middle of the case or at the extractor groove.
