This was years ago but still makes the hair stand up...met an acquaintance at the pistol range, we’re both doing the old “two in the chest, one in the head” thing. Around 50 rounds in he invites me to try his new HK 45...bangbang, bang..(second string)bangpop...don’t know how I backed off the third shot, muscle memory had pressure on the trigger but fortunately the pop was different enough it stopped me. Sure enough, bullet was partway down the barrel with a fresh cartridge in the chamber. Handed it back to him and have never fired anyone’s handloads since. Lesson learned.
