Hey all

I have bought some inert carbine rounds from Dave Cooper for my m1 carbine. I put them in the magazine and they are about 1cm too short!!!! Dave says they are correct but modern deacs wont chamber a live round. Now I have measured these bullets and inc the head are a tad over 1 inch long. Im sure carbine rounds were longer than that. Can anyone shed any light on this.On the base of the bullets he supplied it says WIN 9mm Luger

I think you have just answered your own question
the base should be stamped .30 cal and the brass case
itself is longer than the std 9mm brass case
