Thank you for all the suggestions gentlemen. Your wisdom in this arena shows.
There is definitley an incredible amount to cover when contemplating this huge step.
I ran into a situation where a customer brought in an AR that kaboomed on him shooting reloads. The rifle was completley destroyed. Bulged upper and lower, broken extractor etc. He said that his wife had been firing it and the bolt didnt close all the way so she used the forward assist to close it and KABOOM!
He wanted me to write a letter stating that the reloaded ammo caused the KB.
NO WAY JOSE!
I drafted a form similar to the first one and merely documented the condition of the rifle and the case that was stuck in the chamber. I have my suspicions about the cause and yes they could be ammo related but I am no expert on forensics.
I know this guy wants to go after the ammo reloader and I am trying to insulate myself as much as possible from getting drug into it. I figure the safest play is to simply document the condition of the rifle and cartridge and leave my opinion out of it.
Lots to consider for sure.
Keep the ideas coming guys.
