I need to work on trigger control, so I went out and bought some snap caps. Couldn't really afford all the sizes I need, so I just bought .380 (9mm kurz) and .38 sp.
Kind of like I figured, however, the .380's work just fine in my 9mm. They don't always eject all the way out of the gun (but they are grabbed and pulled back, and sometimes flip out), but the ejector grabs the rim and they feed fine out of the mag.
Anybody think of a reason not to do this?
It's gotten me to thinking, though ... anybody ever tried this with live ammo? Putting .380 into a standard 9mm?
