Absolutely! The round in the picture was shot at a Linwood-Bay Sportsmans Club IDPA night on the indoor range. I still don't know how it happened as I hadn't ever owned a 9mm gun at that point. I can think of only two possibilities; that the table where I was reloading my magazines had a 9mm round left from someone else (doubtful - I would have seen it!) or that some joker slipped the round into one of my 50-round plastic ammo boxes (more likely). In any event, I should have spotted it or felt it but didn't.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I know of a guy that at an IDPA match, shot 15 rd of 9mm from his G22 (40 S&W), cycling each round manually. He initially thought that he had poorly made hand loads. Which by itself, would have made me stop after one or two at the most! But he kept on going. All rounds went off and impacted the intended targets. While collecting his brass, it was discovered what was really happening. Goes to show that you can never be too careful...
