As previously posted the wished for revolver was made during the 1990s as the Model 940 with 2" and 3" barrels.

Am I the only one annoyed by a century of people writing that without moon clips the empties can be ejected with a pencil? During 40 years of occasionally not bothering with moon clips I've never seen that done. The brass that does not fall out with the revolver pointed up is easily removed by grabbing the extractor groove with your finger nails.

I wrote specifically that the "brass" is easily removed because Wolf steel cased 9 MM sticks to revolver chambers so tight that it should not be fired in double action revolvers at all. That's the nature of steel cases. Double action revolver extractors are not strong enough to simultaneously eject 5 or 6 steel cases from higher pressure cartridges. Relatively low pressure steel cased .45 ACP was never inexpensive enough to tempt into buying it so I do not know if it would extract from DA revolvers using moon clips.
