Hello all, I'm a little curious about what ammo I can use in my Star BM. I got a case of that MEN 9mm NATO and I got to wondering if it can take the extra pressure of the NATO rounds. I know most say not to use NATO in these old guns but they always use parts availability as their reasoning. I have also seen some star model BMs marked NATO on the slide for the 89 and up models.
With that aside, can these little steel guns hold the pressures and if they can't what parts go first? Should I save the NATO loadings for my newer pistols? I contacted MEN in Germany for their spec sheet on that ammo that I will include in my post, thanks everyone!
