[QUOTE="WessonOil, post: 2509992, member: 25792"] A squib sounds like a cap gun going off, and you get a trickle of smoke out the barrel that smells like a cap gun. Bullet usually travels an inch or so down the barrel. In a semi-auto, it's not usually a problem, as it tends to not travel far enough down the barrel for the next round to chamber, and the fact the slide doesn't cycle is another indication. Can be scary in a revolver, as bullet will usually travel far enough into barrel for cyliner to turn, and next round fires. [/QUOTE]
