rcmodel June 25, 2012, 03:48 PM No list that I know of. And it would be an awful big list. Glock is the only one that has been getting the bad press about it for the last 15+ years though. If you use a little discretion & common sense when loading, it doesn't make a bit of difference anyway. rc scythefwd June 25, 2012, 03:57 PM if You want to know, field strip, and drop a round into the chamber.. it'll be obvious enough. Not really an issue if you don't actually own the gun. Most gunshops I know will show you how to field strip a gun (though they may not like the drop test). 777TRUTH June 25, 2012, 04:00 PM Glock is the only one that has been getting the bad press about it for the last 15+ years though. If you use a little discretion & common sense when loading, it doesn't make a bit of difference anyway. rcmodel summed it up very nicely. +1 243winxb June 26, 2012, 09:05 AM Like RC said, dont load hot.

June 26, 2012, 09:10 AM Ruger LCP May I add, I load for this gun and have no case bulging at all. I use a calm to mid-power load. ranger335v June 26, 2012, 09:40 AM "...can any body tell me if there is a list of brand model number pistol's out there that do not have a supported chamber..." I doubt anyone has compiled such a list. That leaves it wide open for you to do. ?? Clark June 26, 2012, 02:38 PM I measure my guns occationally.

The LCP is in the same category as the P3AT.... 1100 fps 90 gr is the most I can get. If I scribe the feed ramp line on a case with a needle, the measurement I get is always bigger than when I measure the edge of a case bulge, by ~ .010"
