mrbb this was factory Critical Defense ammo. The situation has been resolved. He just went out and put an empty mag in the pistol and shot the round off without any problems. He told me that the slide didn't lock back though. I told him probably because it took more pressure for the pistol to eject the case and the slide didn't go back far enough to engage the slide stop on the mag. Also told him he' s lucky he still has all his fingers. But I honestly don't think a 9mm has enough powder to blow up a locked up gun unless there is a barrel obstruction.
He then fired 2 mags full of my reloads without any hiccups.
