9mm fired in a .40 ... oops
Oh, thats baaaaaaaaaaaaaad...
:cool:
Thanks for the replies. That is good news. These little guns need every FPS they can get if you are using JHP in them.
Now if one of the dealers I've contacted could just a gun in hand for me...
Speaking of the RevolverGuy... part 2 of the UC deep dive is up on his page (and there is a link at AFR too) if anyone would like to read it.

The ACME I tried had the coating want to flake off of the bullets easily, so I have not given them another try. Others have had good luck, so maybe I got a bad batch. I would try them again, most...
I like the idea of a "sidecar" one and done, grab and go setup, but I know with certainty that sort of thing would crush and pinch the wedding tackle, if I bend at the waist. And I'm a skinny dude.
Pretty much where I was at from the start. This is more like a crowd funding or a kickstarter... seems silly for an established company. Building hype? IDK...
Turn 'em in boys... all your Glocks are readily convertible machineguns!
In other news, the PLA is now directly arming Chicago gangs, film at eleven!
Probably fine to shoot if will pass a case gauge or "plunk test" in his pistols chamber. I have not seen that with 9mm factory ammo before, but my reloads sometimes come out with a bit of "coke...
Alexa, play "Welcome To The Jungle" ...
The bushings in the frame, and the Ti pins should help clean things up and improve durability, which is my main interest. I'm not above throwing a spring kit in or a little judicious smoothing of key...
147gr Bullets often bulge cases in 9x19... especially TC shaped bullets seated deep enough to fit in tight chambers like Gen 5 Glocks or CZ's. RMR's heavy Matchwinner 147's seated deep enough to work...
This is good info, most folks have not put any descriptors to this "new" trigger... I'm interested in seeing how they feel compared to my 442 Pro, which initially had a not very great, and very heavy...
Reading the story again, I don't think he ever would have had a chance to reload his gun. But it certainly does drive home the idea that a J-frame isn't a "go looking for trouble" gun, and that...
I decided against a ten hour drive to buy a wheel gun, but was able to get a good price from a different (semi) local shop, and put a deposit down on a 442 today. This is a little bigger shop that...
Something about high top boots, barbwire fences, and velcro gloves.
As for the story: WTF?
It's absurd, but I'm half considering a ~5 hour drive (each way) to pick up one of these revolvers. It'd make a impromptu family trip, and I'd be staying at least overnight in a hotel. And somehow my...
That's two... don't let there be a third.:cool:
Just following up on this, I could not find any evidence of primer sealant under a UV flashlight, FWIW.
After reading that, I had regrets of not pulling the handle on a 442 when they were in stock at Midway. Some interesting details in that article. Well worth the time to read it.
ETA: I first saw...
Sounds like its bad news, but could be a lot worse. Cancer sucks. Hope he gets answers and treatment is successful on round #2.
Maybe I'm just crazy, but I kinda hope the .32's catch on enough that Safariland starts making Comp I's for the 6 shot .32's...
I'd confirm with Tony that it'll bury the mag deep enough for you before ordering... but I'd guess it will. If it doesn't he can probably make you one, albeit with a slightly longer lead time.
I...
I am not Tony, and I'm not sure if this is exactly what you are asking for, but the "High-Ride Single Pistol Mag Pouch" may be an option:

I no longer own a Mak, and when I did, it only saw ball, but my understanding is the Hornady XTP loading is about the only JHP that is decent, though I think it still comes up a little short...
