So I went to a rental range yesterday to rent a few guns. Anyway, I rented a kahr cw9 and bought a box of ammo and the guy hands me 380. I look at it and mention that I think the gun is a 9mm, and he said, yes, it's 9mm short, which is the same as 380. Thinking that the guy actually knows what he's talking about, I thought, wow, didn't know that, and proceeded to the range. I load up the first mag and it's just not right, so I check out the gun on the phone, and sure enough it's chambered in 9mm para, so back I went to get the ammo exchanged. Sort of annoying.
My questions are, what would have happened if I tried shooting 380 in a 9mm para gun, and has this happened to anyone else?
