Hello,
For those of you who have 9mm in other guns other than glocks, what does the base on your fired brass measure. Cases fired in my Glock 19 all measure .388. I have measured 4 rounds that I picked up at the range, which do not have the glock imprint on the primer and they also measure .388. When i resize the case, the base still stays at .388, since the dies due not get the very bottom of the case do to the bevel at the bottom of the dies. I have a lone wolf replacement barrel on the way (so i can shoot lead) and I am wanting to see if my glock brass is larger than brass fired out of other guns. I had asked another barrel manufacture (not going to mention names) but they told me that it is not safe to fire any caliber glock brass in any gun due to the loose glock chambers. So, of course i dont totally believe that, especially since none of my brass has a buldge on it. What i am wanting to see is how far other guns let the base of the case expand. From what i have seen so far, it seems to be the same amount in the 9mm caliber.
not sure if all that makes sense...let me know if i need to explain it a little better
