Damn... crappy round.

Portland police officer sues gun manufacturer
A police officer who was injured while firing a gun almost two years ago has filed a $53 million lawsuit against the manufacturers of the gun and the ammunition.

An example of a Glock 21.
The suit filed by Officer Florin Pirv seeks $50,000 in compensatory damages, $3 million for pain and suffering and $50 million in punitive damages, The Oregonian reported.
Pirv was taking a qualification test with a .45 caliber Glock 21 when the "breech/cartridge feed ramp fractured, causing backward propulsion of hot gases, hot air, and shrapnel to be blown into Pirv's face, body, and hands," according to the suit.
The lawsuit names Glock, which is based in Georgia, and two ammunition-makers based in Minnesota, Federal Cartridge Company and Alliant Technosystems. None could be reached for comment.
Pirv, who is currently assigned to a patrol shift, was one of two Portland officers injured while firing the weapon in March 2004, prompting Police Chief Derrick Foxworth to order its recall. The .45 caliber Glock had been carried by 230 officers.
The Police Bureau replaced them with 9mm Glocks.
