Great museum tour! I had mistakenly thought that 9 mm Largo was a high pressure submachine gun round. Wrong. Maybe it did find its way into sub guns, but Andrew set me straight with this video. For a time I had a Star 1911 like pistol in 9 mm Largo that had a quantity of CCI aluminum cased cartridges. What an odd duck it was.
I have have had one since the mid 90's and shoot it quite regularly! Star Line brass company sells new 9mm Largo brass for the reloader Factory ammo has been hard to find recently. Interestingly, the 9mm Largo and 9mm Luger take the same powder charge according to reloading manuals.
