No...Gold Dots only. 115 or 124 gr.
Stick with what works.

I've had great results with GD 124s and Winchester 147s. No FTF/FTE. I've even had good results from FMJ WWB. After I had an extractor replaced by the factory, my gun has been flawless. That's why I was asking about the other ammo choice.

Duncan,
That is a great thought about DPX; if there were something
tailor made for the pup, you would think that would be it.
I am happy with the gold dots for carry and throw in some
WWB for practice once in awhile, but there are enough
adventurers here that I would think someone would try it.

Dpx ammo is a wicked defensive round! When I find them I will definately try them!

Gentlemen:

The Corbon 9mm Luger is indeed a "hotrod" 115-grain round rated at 1250FPS/399FTLBS.  The bad news, unfortunately, is that it is loaded to +P pressure, which is not recommended for our little "pocket rockets."
