What weight bullet in a Md 439?
Hi,
I'm seriously thinking of shooting my beater Md 439 I bought on the forum a few years back. Even with a bent mag release button, it and the gun works fine. I've shot about 100 rounds of 115 grn WW when I got it but I then put it away to shoot newer 9mms. I have a lot of 147grn 9mm, both sub-sonic and std loads that I have for my other guns. But I am wondering about the sanity of shooting any of these in this gun on a 500 or more round count basis. I don't remember if 147 grn ammo was used by any of the few police departments using S&W Autos back in the day. And if it was, whether it was sub-sonic or std loads. I'm sure the steel parts can handle it, but the alloy frame?
Anyway, comments and opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Chris
