I have a few thousand rounds of US military ball .45 I inherited - 1961 manufacture. Every weapon I put it through, it has gone BANG. Never a dud.
I took my new PT145 4th gen to the range and loaded up one magazine and all I got were light hits on the primer. Bought a box of Blazer Brass and all went off as normal in the PT145. Cycling the military ball into my other weapon and they went off just fine.
Now, all my other .45's are your standard variation of 1911 so this my first striker fire. SO, is this something that is normal for striker fire pistols? I'm thinking the military ball is probably hard primers, but I would appreciate any other input/user experience out there.
Thanks!
