![]() To me the answer is never going to be “just run nonstandard ammo in the underpowered pistol” I think that’s just adding uncertainty (and, according to the pistol manufacturers, potential danger of failure or even injury) to the mix. ![]() If you can’t get what you need out of a.380, then it’s time to move to a.38 Special +P or to a 9mm. This great pistol ammo is worth every penny. It is not to be confused with.38 ACP, 9mm Ultra, 9mm Makarov or 9mm Parabellum. Other names for.380 ACP include.380 Auto, 9mm Browning, 9mm Corto, 9mm Kurz, 9mm Short, 9×17mm and 9 mm Browning Court (which is the C.I.P. This led them to develop the compact.380 pistol. Recognizing the limitations of both the pocket.380 and the subcompact 9mm, gun manufacturers sought to develop a gun that had the best of both worlds. Some 9mm subcompacts can also be difficult to shoot. The big difference is the length and power of the respective rounds. Confusion stems from the fact that both the.380 acp (sometimes called '.380 auto') and the 9mm are both nine-millimeter bullets. Can 9mm bullets be fired in a.380 caliber pistol? Quick answer: No. Shooting a.380 in a 9X18 chamber is akin to ' hey, hold my beer and watch this ', not a good ideal, you were right to doubt the gun store. Sooner or later it will break an extractor or firing pin. Yes, most 9X18 chambered guns will fire a.380 and it will probably even eject., but both will give lousy accuracy and neither is right for the guns.
