Shot shells in Lugers?

[Steve Lempitski]

CCI makes them in handgun caliber loaded with 53 grains of #12 shot.. Im curious as to how they feed and chamber in a luger. Im sure they wont work the action and have to be hand cycled to eject the spent case and chamber a new round.

...And you're going to shoot a rattlesnake or other venomous reptile without a backup shot???

This was brought up here some time ago, a Search should turn up some interesting comments...

I haven't looked at the CCI 9mm shotshells, at the time of the thread I mentioned, only 38/357 shotshells were available in 9mm/38 caliber - You had to pull the 38/357 "bullets" and handload them into 9mm cases...They had square edges, so I don't expect they'd feed too well...I never tried them; snakes are pretty much welcome in my yard...They eat mice, which get into 1986 Corvette convertibles and eat thousands of dollars worth of dashboard wiring & modules...
