I use Remington FMJ for my LCP.

With a package of 50 rounds (Remington FMJ) I had 3 double feed jams - which never happened before.

The gun was cleaned and in good conditions.

I could not identify any problems with the extractor or with the mag (though I will check this tonight more thoroughly).
I noticed that the Remington amo I bought at the range looked a little bit “strange”, i.e.
• the bullets had a more brownish colour than the usual bronce colour (maybe it was already an older package
• the surface of the bullets was very coarse (!)and not that smooth and shiny as usual.

The cartridges which jammed looked as if they went off without being fully chambered, and their surface looked somehow shattered.
(The extracted cartridges usually did not show such a shattered surface).
One of the cartridges had a broken edge:
