"a fully seated hangfire producing an empty casing with a bulged out base"
Lets break this down.
Ask yourself can you have a hangfire. Yes or No?
Can you have a bulged casing, Yes or No?
Think of the process of a hangfire.
Ask yourself this, How does a case get bulged when fired from a hand gun?
Here is a theory
1. Two bullets loaded. (3rd was already in the magazine did not notice as was in a rush under stress)
2. Fired two rounds off into the air.
3. Pulled the trigger a few times more released the magazine.
3. Primer only fired during one of the few trigger pulls, moving the slide slightly out of battery. Extruding the muzzle slightly. (did not hear or notice a primer only fire as to the other noise, distractions and stress happening)
4. went to the driver side of the vehicle reached inside to remove keys. BOOM round ignites off due to a slow burn.
5. Casing ejects with bulge due to firing out of battery due to a slow burn, alternately round exits the barrel.
