Yeah, it was sarcasm.  ;)  I have a 23 and the wife has a 19.  When we're at the range, I have to be mindful of her loaded mags vs my loaded mags sitting on the shooting bench.  She doesn't have to worry though, since if she accidentally grabs my mag, it won't chamber for her.  I wouldn't be surprised if that's what happened in the above pic - someone gassing up their 23 (or 22) with a mag for a 19 (or 17).

Yeah several had pierced primers this is just one that happened to make it home with me. I just had to satisify my curiousity. Thanks for the info!

Looking at the primer dent it wasn't fired from a glock. Glocks have that linear look instead of the round punch.

Wesley D:
Good eye brad.  I didn't look very closely at the primer strike, just the swelled case.
