Yep. I also have some Cor-Bon JHP's, but I'm not using them yet. I think I'll frame them and admire them from across the room.
Them's expensive cartridges!

TCA | Ive tried the Corbons on my 40's , they dont feed well, the hollow surface is rough. The Winchester hollowpoint ammo (white box) has a very smooth surface and feeds flawlessly. The standard 40s&w hollowpoints (50 round box). They are picky when it comes to hollowpoints.

My diabolical master plan is to invest in some Federal HydraShok 147gr JHPs. The store just didn't have them today.

TCA | I had the Federal 124+p hydrashok's I think for my C9 if I remember corectly. They feed better than Corbons do but still have fail to feed issues with them. The plain Winchester white box hollowpoints will work flawlessly(for me).

Any info on good ammo appreciated.

TCA | The Winchester hollowpoints ? They arent +p , im not sure if they have them for 9mm, I would assume they do. I had them in 40s&w, I think they were 165 grain. They are smooth surfaced hollowpoints so they feed well. Oh, and by the way be sure you use fmj for the first 500 rounds or so. Dont get discouraged if you have a few fail to feeds during the first 2-5 hundred. Maybe less than that, it took me about 200 for it to work flawlessly and...500 is just to be safe, yours might take less time, who knows. That C9 is a keeper though

I have a C9mm just like Constantine's...and have put hundreds of rounds through it. I bought in used for $99 and it still keep going. every now and then it will jam open so I disassembled it and it shoots again just like it did - smooth. short barrel is perfect for CCW, I haven't gotten that far yet.

Took her to the range today, and fired 94 rounds through her (90 wwb fmj, 4 corbon jhps to check for feed)
I did have a few jams. even with the wwb. I know it's not quite broken in yet, so I'll keep trying. I will say the jams were few and far between.
Sighted her in, too and now the rear sight looks like a skate ramp.

TCA | Cool, just a little longer TCA and you will have a very reliable gun.
