Supported/Unsupported chambers

[Seven High]

Does anyone know where I might obtain a list of semi autos that have a supported chamber, semi supported chamber and unsupported chamber?

 

[Longbow]

not a list, but.....

.......most Colt 1911's uses an unsupported/non-ramped barrel. So as most .45 ACP 1911's.

Most 1911's and Glocks have unsupported chambers. Some 1911's like the Kimber 40 S&W and 10mm and current production Para Ordnances have supported chambers.

Here is something that someone did on GT to give you an idea:

Great Picture,

Thanks for posting it. I've always wanted to compare the Glock and H&K.

Thanks for taking the time to make that pic. I had an unexpected "spontaneous disassembly" of my G22 at the range one day 6 or 7 years ago. That got me interested in the supported vs. unsupported chamber thing. When talking to people about it, I usually get a "what are you talking about" look. Now I can show them.
