Blazer ammo with alu casings

[Gillis2]

Hi,
I have an opportunity of getting a large quantity of 9mm Blazer ammunition ( in aluminum casings). I know you can't reload those casings which is fine with me as I don't reload but I am wondering if those aluminum casings can damage my higher end 9mm pistols or if they are safe to use?

Thanks for your input.

Been shooting the Blazer alu in my 1911/92fs and others with absolutly no problems, except for my Keltec S2000 gen1... It jams often so I think the alu shell for the Keltec is too soft.

Buy em up. I picked up 500 locally when they were on for $12.99. No issues whatsoever.

My M&P9L CORE Ported (thats a mouthful) eats them like anything else.

Too bad the range magnets don't

Glock 34 they work just fine in. And yep my gen 1 sub 2k hates them aswell

So I guess I can use them safely in my « precious » pistolas.

Thanks all

We use them in .45 and in 9mm through three different pistols with zero issues.

If you're not into reloading, I really see no downside.

Walther PPX just jams up with those. But it is picky about what it eats.

I use those in 3guns and CQBs, it works fine in my Glock 17 and pissed off the "brass vultures"

That stuff wont hurt any gun but in the past it could be underpowered and cause jams in some guns. In recent years I believe they pushed the charge up a bit to correct this. Buy it up and enjoy the savings.

I have shot a number of thousands of rounds of those in semi-autos and revolvers with no problems.

I just bought a pistol that came with 850 rounds of aluminum cased .380, and I was concerned as well but 150 rounds yesterday, and no hiccups or marks from the casings.

I haven't had a problem with it yet. Keep in mind though, even if you don't reload you can collect your brass cases and sell them on the EE to reloaders for a nice return. Leaving them on the ground is like throwing your beer cans in the trash.
