They aren’t. In fact, quite often on a lot of magazines, if you measure the lips, 9mm and .40 are identical. Sometimes the follower is different, though. During the 94AWB, a “work around” the 10rd mag cap was to use a .40 magazine in your 9mm; you could usually fit 12-14 rounds of 9 in a ten...

Eh, I’ve owned a lot of Glocks, in most every caliber and size out there (prior to the “40” series subcompacts). They’re all gone. They don’t do anything that my VP9 won’t do better, for me.

If the grips are G10, be careful sanding them down…you’ll definitely want a N95 and eyepro; the dust is nasty stuff. Try wearing gloves.

Got back from Pearl Harbor; wife wanted to nap, and there’s a brewery only a 15 minute walk from the condo… A few thoughts from the morning. Watched the colors being raised; somehow, it meant a little bit more seeing it there than most other places. The Arizona Memorial is beautiful. It had...

Nitro Coconut Porter @ Maui Brewing. That’s quite tasty.

I’ve shot it in HK USP’s with no modifications, but they are designed for it. Usually, you’ll need a heavier recoil spring in a 1911. Sometimes you’ll need heavier mag springs as well for reliable feeding.

Sometimes. You’re better off getting correct mags ones.

Bummer about the damage…but good that you could salvage a good time all the same.

Yes. Just don’t use .40 ammo.

It’s going to be like Sig’s .277 Fury in that regards, I suspect.
