Well, we can say it is unsafe, etc., but I would LOVE to own it! Might pop a few rounds through it, might not.

Although the 45 ACP SAAMI is 21,000 and the 9mm Luger SAAMI is 35,000?

So, its pressure in the chamber is 1/3 less? I imagine the opinion is that a lot more metal is missing and thus not as safe?
