    Has anyone had a slam fire using Federal GMM cartridges with their M1A??? I had this happen the other weekend for the first time. I've always used GMM or M1A specific ammo and have never had a slam fire before. Just a rare happenstance maybe?

    If the reason for the slamfire isn't obvious, you need to have a gunsmith look at the rifle. Accidental full-auto will soil your underwear.
