I've read that Glocks have occasionally blown up (ka-boom) because lead reloads were used. Lead in barrel built up and the shooter shot jacketed ammo before cleaning the barrel. The plumbing backed up and the bang was on the wrong end. I am thinking of getting a glock, but only if I can safely shoot reloads out of wheel weights for practice.

Q: Does anyone know if it is safe to use wheel weights as long as I'm careful to clean the barrel after my practice sessions? Or should I just stick with another company that doesn't use polygonal barrels?
