Another 9mm ?

[alamogunr]

I didn't want to hi-jack the other thread on 9mm reloading, but have some questions. I just got a Glock 19 for my younger son for Christmas. Since he is a rather impecunious college professor I thought that I would reload his ammo with cast boolets. I have never reloaded 9mm. I have read that cast is a "no-no" in Glocks. I have also read that it is OK. At this time I'm not ready to buy an aftermarket barrel for this gun so what are my options other than, cast is OK or full length gas checks?

I don't know if it makes any difference but this gun is a 1st gen Glock (no finger grooves or rail). I prefer the 1st generation Glocks from an appearance standpoint.

See the stickey just above this thread, "The truth about Glocks and cast". It probably has the answers you're looking for.

Thanks for reminding me. I have fallen into the habit of only looking at threads that have new responses since I last checked. I probably need to go thru all the stickey's and see what is new and interesting.
