Re: .40 caliber full metal jacket wadcutter gluelit
The NAGS R&D has determined that a .40 caliber full metal jacket wadcutter gluelit can be simply fabricated by injecting a small amount of hot glue in the bottom of a fired 9MM pistol case. This can then be loaded, BY HAND into a primed .40 caliber S/W pistol case. The open end of the 9MM case goes into the open end of a sized .40 cal. case and seated with no more than hand pressure. The 9MM case should not be seated with a press, but with HAND pressure. The .40 Cal. case can then be taper crimped, but not roll crimped.
The glue in the 9MM case will stop the primer pop in the .40 cal. case from blowing the dead primer out of the 9MM case. The 9MM case will slip fit in the barrel of a .40 caliber pistol. The pistol will not cycle. A bit more velocity can be obtained by using a magnum pistol primer in the .40 cal. case. The addition of 1 or 2 grains of a relatively fast pistol powder will launch the 9MM case at a surprisingly fast velocity.
