That would be the recall guns made in 1995 and 1996.  It was due to a slip up in quality control management.

If the gun was made in 1995 or 1996 the serial number will end in -95 or -96.  Usually these are "APOLLO" model guns.  That being said, no load should ever cause the "blowing back" of the bolt.
