He traded this revolver to me.
The other was my nephew with a Daniel Defense AR15. It detonated in the chamber and stretched and destroyed the receivers. DD replaced the rifle but said it was the ammo that caused it.
While I know that a good majority of their ammo is really good, these two situations that I know to be true are enough to make me shy away from their ammo. There are others comparibly priced that I buy instead.
Not an internet troll here, just conveying two instances that I know to be fact.
Sounds like manufacturing defects on the firearms and they didn't want to take the blame
