    If it does not work, use that as an excuse to get a 9mm revolver?

      Isn't the honeybadger stuff the extremely expensive Lehigh Defense stuff? Not really plinking ammo.

        Always give the customer the opportunity to spend more.

          It'll probably be fine. The only gun I ever saw have problems with subsonic ammo was the Steyr GB, the gas delayed blow back system did not like the 147Gr subsonic Winchester.

            So 300 blackout ammo?

            What else is ammo good for, just shoot it and enjoy the journey.

              I bought some subsonic ammo before (a different brand than yours), but they're just as loud if the suppressor is not used with it. Cycled fine for me.

                      I’m pretty sure all 147 grain 9mm is subsonic, it’s just not advertised as such. Never had any issues.
                      Buying a safe and sane firework is like paying a hooker for a hug. I do not see the appeal in it.

                            Are there any 9mm revolvers that don’t need the moon clips though? I woulda bought one by now but I don’t like that requirement.

                              Yup, that’s the stuff..I have plinking but I’ll need to test this stuff eventually. If I can cycle a couple boxes w no issues then I figure it’s good.

                              I figure worse case, I get a revolver like other poster mentioned.
