A slamfire can cause unnecessary injuries and easily avoidable with the right education and knowledge.

Preventing Slam Fires in Several Firearm Types, offers essential information and instruction on keeping yourself safe and avoiding slamfire. Detailed in this guide are what a slamfire is and what their causes are.

Commercial primers are more sensitive than military primers. When the bolt slams closed, the free floating firing pin will contact the primer.

If you are a reloader, another problem to watch for is an improperly sized case or one in which the bullet is not seated to the correct depth, making the overall case length too long.

Essentially the biggest factor affecting slam fires is reloaded ammunition.

Slamfire prevention is discussed in relation to the following firearms:

• M1 Garands
• M1A's
• FN-LAR's
• SAT-48's
• M1 Carbines

When the Ruger P-85 was test fired it was found that the accuracy of the pistol is adequate for military operations but inadequate for the typical civilian demands and law enforcement requirements.

This guide states that the NRA conducted firing tests on three randomly selected pistols. Naturally, the best results were with the Silvertips (super ammunition for all 9mm pistols in my opinion).

Tables and statistics are given in this guide these two tests; Fire five 5 shot groups from 25 yards with a Ransom Rest using PMC 9A 115 grain full metal jacket ammunition and Fire five 5 shot groups from 25 yards from a sandbag (without a Ransom Rest) using a variety of 9mm ammunition.

Read on to get these statistics.

The author states that the proper care of the bore requires conscientious, careful work, but it pays will in the attainment of reduced labor of cleaning, prolonged accuracy life of the barrel, and better results in target practice.

He goes on to talk about gun fouling, which is the result of firing and is of two kinds; the first being, the products of combustion of the powder; the other cupro-nickel scraped off (under the abrading action of irregularities or grit in the bore). Powder fouling may be readily removed by scrubbing with hot soda solution, but this solution has no effect on the metal fouling of cupro-nickel.

In preparing arms for storage or shipment they should be cleaned with particular care, using the metal fouling solution as described in this booklet. Care should be taken, insured by careful inspection on succeeding day or days that the cleaning is properly done and all traces of annonia solution removed.
