It shoots fine out of my Glock and Taurus, both 9mm. The aluminum cases are non-reloadable. A little dirty, but no worse than WWB. Accuracy is kinda sketchy; S&B and WWB are better. I've had no failures to fire, feed, or eject with it.

Yeah, a P89 shoud shoot that stuff just fine. I had a P85 for a while and it would feed rocks. The 89 isn't much different.
That's some dirty stuff though.

CCI Blazer is good ammo. I don't bother reloading 9mm, so the price savings is nice. I just finished up 3 cases and had another 2 cases arive from www.natchezss.com 2 days ago. $6/50 + S/H
My 952 loves the stuff. 54 rounds - rapid fie.

Must be the brass cased Blazer. Six months ago the aluminum sold for $3.84 a box at Academy. Out the door with 1000rds for about $85. Now that the aluminum is so hard to get, guess I'll have to start back reloading the nine!

My P-89 has never been fussy about ammo.

My P95 went through a couple thousand rounds of the aluminum Blazer before Academy raised the price by almost $2.00 per box.
Now it eats the lacquered steel case Monarch ($4.86/50 from Academy) without complaint.

I shot some of the aluminum cased Blazer through a new open gun I built, it went well under an inch at 25 yards. It is dirty, throws sparks and fire out of the barrel, but it shoots good. My other 9's like it fine also, but the optical sight on the open gun makes it a lot easier to gauge true accuracy potential.

Similar to this gun, mine is still in the white, uses a different compensator, optic mount, magwell, etc.http://www.stiguns.com/guns/GrandMaster/images/GrandMasterBlueMain06_800w.jpg
