Unusual malfunction .30 Luger case

I would say it was simply a defective case.
Defect in the drawing of the case that escaped any inspection; I would expect it happens every "x" thousands of cases that are made.

Nothing to do with the luger or the shooter; just bad luck!

My WAG would be a case failure due to a manufacturing flaw. This is the first example of a 30 Luger case "separating" that I have seen. Thanx for showing it.

100% agree. No need to overthink it.
