Loads thru New Gun

[Craigwood]

I'll be picking up a new 9mm next week. Though I do reloading for the more seasoned ones, does it really matter what I put thru a new barrel. If so lead or fmj. Or does that not matter either?

[sequoia_nomad]

No, unless it's a Glock.

[Turbinator]

Doesn't matter. Just don't load any higher than is safe for the gun you're using. And per what the other guy said, don't put lead through the standard factory Glock barrel.

Well I dont have to worry about that. I'll be picking up a Sig 226. Why are the Glocks so sensitive to lead?

The rifling used in Glocks cause more lead buildup

Is that good or bad for the Glock owners which make it more restrictive as what they can shoot? Dont know too much about the Glocks. What I did find out because of the lighter poly frames the recoil spring is different design to lighten up the recoil like a double spring I guess. I am not really much of a fan of the poly type, non hammer frames yet.
I guess thats why my search was restricted to Sig, Beretta or HK. I bought the Sig. Old school.
