A couple of parts popped out but I was able to put the gun back together at the range. Then my dad took a turn and not even a mag later it happened again. Some people might bad mouth the 92FS but it is a tough gun. Even after having 2 case blow outs in one outing it was functional after a little bit of help. We took a closer look at the batch of ammo and found a few rounds were the casing was visibly cracked. The lesson here is to be careful when purchasing reloaded ammo, especially semi-auto pistol ammo.

Nothing wrong with the 92FS. Had a 96 Vertec for awhile. Just don't care for the gun. Doesn't suit me well.
