wtf? what army? michigen militia?

it means there's a faulty primer on the round, pull down on the magazine so to ensure it's in it's carrage, cock the weapon and fire.

that couldn't of happened on a military range, the RSO (range safety officer) would've had a heart attack & probably ended up losing it and kill the poor misguided troop.
