From the description, the bullets flied out of the 140m/m barrel. Actually, this is the type of shooting that I support -- figure out some myth from shooting. But that could cost too much for individual to perform and I could not afford the price.

9x19 fitting into chamber of 7,63 is no problem. It's not shorter from headspace point of view.
