9x19 in 7,63x25 chamber

Much lower pressure and the gap between the cylinderand the barrel allows for a large release of pressure. There is a widely printed picture of, I believe a .38 Enfield with the barrel disected showing more than a cylinders worth of bullets lodged in it. The barrel does not seem to have been bulged at all. Once again, low pressure and the cylinder gap explains the lack of damage.
