I was talking to the salesman and I put my foot up on the bumper of the car and leaned on it a bit. When I did, a spent .45ACP case fell out of the grill and onto the pavement. He looked down and chuckled a bit. I had been out in the desert firing earlier and I guess some brass must have been bouncing off the car's grill. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were probably fired by a Glock. I say probably because I don't know if there is another pistol with that oddly-shaped striker. Plus, with a Glock, the face of the primer extrudes into the striker hole in the breech face, leaving a raised rectangular mark and the Glock striker impact on the primer is always offset to the bottom end of the impression. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking Kahr, but was torn between it and Glock. But apparently it's a striker-fired thing because Sig 365s do it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never noticed it on other brass, although I never really looked for it. I just know that all the brass I ever collected, after being fired through my G21, looked exactly like that pic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
