OK, I'm not even going to try and justify this one. I shot one, I love it, now I want one.

My only concern is with the cartridge itself. Modern 9mm loadings run at similar chamber pressures to the 110/125gr .357 loadings that we've all been warned not to shoot extensively through K-Frames.

The one I shot has the flattened bottom edge to the forcing cone. Theoretically, the gas-venting issue may be worse for this, since it's a shorter cartridge.

Unless, that is, I'm missing something.

So, please tell me this thing is going to blow up within a few rounds so I'm not tempted to drop serious cash on one
