As you might figure out I was a Luger collector. As such I have a few in .30 Luger. I like the round and wanted to have it in another gun. However anything that is chambered in this cal is big $$. So I bought a Barsto barrel for it, a little fitting and it shoots fine.  ------------------------------------- Always the pall bearer, never the corpse. | ||

Cool! I've been shooting a lot of 7.65mm as of late and recently converted a Gen2 Glock to make the ammo disappear more quickly. Got a few 7.65mm Sigs too:  The conversion was a lot easier than making a Glock run on .38 Super.  | |||

I did have some issues with it chambering at first. The chamber was cut very tight and would only take factory ammo. I hand load so that would not do. Sent the barrel back with some sized cases and he cut it a hair deeper. All better now. Unfortunately I only have one box of 90gr .309 bullets left. Hopefully wen this ammo supply catches up I will be a able to get more. ------------------------------------- Always the pall bearer, never the corpse. | |||

Most of the time I ask for the ammo and get boxes of .32s It makes for a nice round of target practice. There is the added bonus that nobody runs off with your brass. | |||

Now there’s a real neat idea! How long did you wait on the BarSto? Was it a one off, or a catalog offering? | |||

Standard chambering for G17 and 19. only wait at the time was shipping time. ------------------------------------- Always the pall bearer, never the corpse. | |||

As stated above your post, Glock 17 and 19. So 9mm as the 9mm is a blown out .30 Luger. ------------------------------------- Always the pall bearer, never the corpse. | |||

So .30 Luger was the prototype for the .357 Sig! ------- Trying to simplify my life... | |||

No The 7.65x21mm, also known as the .30 Luger is a lineal descendant of the 7.65×25mm Borchardt cartridge, which was the basis for the 7.62x25mm Tokarev and the 7.63x25mm Mauser cartridges as well. The basis for the 357 SIG is of course the .40 S&W cartridge. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||
