Hi All:

The Chinese Norinco ammo I have fired in several 9mm pistols is the hottest 9MM I've ever fired!! I would rate it +P++!

Remember, the original DWM ammo, as listed even as late as in the 1930's Mauser owner's manual, was rated as a 123 grain bullet at 1076 fps.

Current US Army loads (as loaded by Winchester) are rated at 121 grains at 1260 fps. This is +P+, AND A 17% OVERLOAD TO THE ORIGINAL SPECS.!!!!

The few Norinco red and blue box rounds I've fired through my byf 41 almost made the pistol JUMP OUT OF MY HAND UPON FIRING!!!

AS STATED SOME MONTHS AGO, SHOOT THIS CHINESE AMMO THROUGH YOUR LUGER AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

Respectfully submitted

Sieger

PS: ALX, you are very lucky to be alive and well!!
