9mm NATO with Taurus PT92

[sprint113]

Hey everybody,

Does anyone know if it is possible (i.e. safe) to shoot 9mm NATO from a Taurus PT92? The weapon itself has 9mm PARA on the slide, but I was wondering if it could handle the hotter NATO rounds.

Thanks!

Yes, at least the newer ones can. Check your owners manual to be sure.

My manual IIRC says +P rated, it does not mention NATO +P+ rounds. It is circa 1987 or so...
