Hmm, over here they shot standard NATO ball through anything that moves for years, and the guns still work, so I think the problem is slightly exaggerated.
Dutch government used FN Hi-Power pistols and Glocks for years with the stuff, I shot several boxes through my 1937 P08 without issues. I wouldn't recommend it as a regular diet for prolonged use, but the gun will not roll over and die after a box of NATO 9mm once in a while. That said, the risk of shooting collectible pistols with ANY ammunition should be known by now. If you don't want to break anything, don't shoot them. |
