The 9mm is a versatile caliber and also easily available (unless there’s a panic hoarding going around). Longer barrels are suitable for range use, competitions, and even hunting. It all depends upon how many rounds you actually want in a single cylinder.Ĭompact revolvers with short barrels are mostly used for EDC and CCW applications, due to their easily concealable size and lesser weight. Plus, different revolvers feature specific capacities.
Size, Capacity, and UseĪ 9mm revolver can have a short 2.5-inch barrel or a longer six inches+ barrel. Remember that an exposed hammer is a necessity for single action revolvers. Hammerless revolvers also help with reducing printing when carrying the weapon concealed. Some revolver designs keep this hammer concealed inside the frame, preventing snagging and making the weapon easy to holster/re-holster. This is used to cock the hammer and also to decock it. Revolvers mostly feature a curved hammer spur on the rear. This is a possible risk with ultra-lightweight revolvers. Problems like ‘crimp jump’ where the recoil of the revolvers rarely causes the bullets to jump the crimp of the case that can cause a locked up revolver. Beware of Possible MalfunctionsĪ revolver is a simplistic design but it is also not immune to malfunctions. Also, make sure that you preload and carry multiple moon clips.

However, on the contrary, when using a full moon clip ejection is only good after all the rounds have been fired. Using a moon clip lets you utilize the extractor and quickly empty the cylinder for a fresh reload. The 9mm operates at a pressure of 35,000 psi and sometimes the expanding brass case can stick to the cavity. The 9mm cartridges tend to fit so flush that you sometimes have to use your fingernails to pull out stuck cases.
Since the cylinder of the revolver fits these rounds almost flush and have to be emptied for reloading. The 9mm is a tapered rimless case semi-auto round.
