Does anyone have, or has anyone worked on, a Para-Ordnance P18.9?
A friend has told me that he's certain Para-Ordnance used the same breechface cut for their 9mm, .38 Super, and .40 S&W pistols. I can understand the first two being the same, but running both of those "calibers" through a 1911 cut wide enough for .40 S&W seems to me a bit of a stretch. I know for a fact that Caspian uses three breechface cuts: 9mm/.38 Super, .40 S&W/10mm, and .45 ACP.
I'm trying to confirm this. I don't have access to a P18.9. My friend is a few thousand miles away and doesn't own a caliper, so I'm casting about for alternate ways to confirm or refute this notion.
Does anyone know?
