Actually, I think the Glisenti would take the original DWM 7.65 mm Parabellum load. It's the 9 mm Parabellum that's a bit too much for it. The Glisenti apparently will take a reasonable level of pressure but begins to look a bit weak when you atart talking about impulse. The frame and locking system are apparently not everything they could be. I am sure there are others lurking around here who knopw more about the fine points of the Glisenti than I do.

You will find the 9 mm Glisenti cartridge listed in "Cartridges of the World".<hr /></blockquote>Dear Unspellable:

Cartridges of the World lists the original 9mm Glisenti load as: 124 gr. bullet @ approximately 1050 fps. This is almost exactly the same as the original DWM load for the Parabellum.
