I blew up my Platypus (Follow-up)

If you take a look at my earlier post in here, I had a casing detonate (as seen in picture #2) that caused my trigger and palm safety to go dead. Sent it off to Stealth Arms for repair, fixed it up without a dime out of my pocket. On top of that; on the repair form I said “I’m including the casing that killed the gun for you guys to gaze upon, please send it back so I can pee on it” to which I got the following.

Stealth Arms is 🅱️ased as fuck and I will 100% be getting a commander length platy down the line now.

Picked up a Platty off Tacswap from a lovely gent in Florida on Friday, low round count and exactly what I wanted so I was glad to finally get my hands on one. Just after I finished zeroing the acro and started running drills, had a casing explode (pictured above) and gave me a stanky little powder burn on my support hand in the outline of the slide release (picture 2). I’m good other than that, and this thing probably saved me from a trip to the hospital since I’m sure my polymer frame guns would’ve not taken it nearly as well. Here’s your reminder not to run shitty ammo (some company local to me that I’ll never touch again), and a huge shoutout to Stealth Arms for building a pistol that could tank this. We’ll see how long she’s down for repairs with them.
