The Type 3 Malfunction Round is a nylon dummy round that simulates the Type 3 Malfunction, or doublefeed, exactly as we would experience it in reality, under live fire training conditions.
The Type3MalfunctionRound is made of a nylon plastic resin which is designed to protect the internal steel parts of the firearm from being damaged.
The Type3MalfunctionRound takes the beating of the slide instead of the gun.
Each Type3MalfunctionRound will last roughly 500 shots before needing to be replaced. With too much wear, the Type3MalfunctionRound can stay stuck in the barrel when stripping the magazine from the firearm.
While a training nuisance, a stuck Type3MalfunctionRound is not dangerous. Simply discard the disposable round and use a new one.
