.38 super or 10mm for defense?

[JTQ]

Because I was following the thread and going to give you some help, but as pointed out by BullfrogKen and 45_auto, you are either unable or unwilling to accept the help offered by members.

im unwilling to accept patronizing and condescending statements... suggesting i dont understand the definition of "tapered" is quite an insult...

and assuming i would even consider custom race guns as an option when i say 10mm seems to be more common and with less problems to .38 super, and then toss out an insult shortly after is pretty rude as well

 

[jason41987]

really.. does anyone on this forum do more than toss insults? seem to be a lot of idiots doing just that on a discussion of 38 super vs 10mm for defensive purposes... because i asked the physical difference between .38 super and 38acp???

forget it.. if people are here to start crap, by all means delete the thread and ill find a source of more civilized individuals to continue the discussion with

No, you asked -

why would i consider a 38 super barrel when a 9x23 winchester barrel allows me to fire .38 super and 9x23 winchester?​

And I pointed out the problems you can have when you fire a cartridge that doesn't match the dimensions of the chamber. Scimmia also pointed that out back in post #11. You may understand the meaning of the word tapered. But figuring the rounds are "close enough" that you can shoot both through a 9x23 chamber interchangeably and never have a problem illustrates you really didn't "get it" the first time.


Many people do it and get away with it. Most of them are not reloaders. Fire hot 38 Supers through a standard 9x23 chamber enough times and the brass will fail after only a few reloads.


Fact is the forum has been pretty patient with your questions, many of which could have been answered through some research on your own. Especially from someone who claims the skill and knowledge it takes to build a gun. Find a source of more civilized individuals for a discussion than The High Road? Good luck sport.

you have me the definition of tapered... i work in the field of engineering, i know more about engineering, and terms related to engineering, and those you hear often in engineering more so far than you ever will in your life.. so before you think you have the right to criticize someone else because you failed to read the post through, just dont post anything at all... theres no need to be rude.. and then how dare you tell me i made an infraction...

i dont know how people feel, but i would consider this forum to be somewhat of a place of business, and expect those moderators here to conduct themselves with a level of professionalism, instead of throwing insults, only to give an infraction when someone stands up for themself... so by all means, keep your mouth shut if youre just going to start drama

What railroad company do you work for? Trains are cool.

OK. You're right and I'm wrong.


Go shoot 38 Supers in a 9x23 barrel to your heart's content. And may you come across a surgeon who can match your prowess in the field of engineering.
