    MAC MGs are blow back guns so most likely it will bulge the brass out when fired.

    Sign up for uzitalk.com and post on the MAC forum. They probably only have 50 people there on a regular basis but that includes manufacturers, dealers, people who knew Ingram, and people that bought their first MACs for $25 when RPB shut down.

    I shoot M11/9 and never noticed a bulge in the brass.

    The MAC-10 I rented at a range in Tampa would bulge cases. I cant say everyone of them does it though.

    I have a M11/9 that does the same thing. I dont even bother reloading them after they come outta her. I would shoot Wolf but she jams

    I'll never shoot wolf again. I had my first squib encounter over the weekend. I was shooting Wolf 115gr ammo in my Mac 10 and pop and the gun jammed. I think it was the first round off the mag.So I packed up and went home to try to remove it. I wouldn't have giving a dam but it was in my custom made barrel that I had made for AWC MK9 suppressor for my UZI. I guess I got lucky because I put a small long drill bit down the front of the barrel and taped it out with a hammer. It happened in the thickest part of the barrel were it threads into the upper so I diden't see any damage to the barrel. So needles to say I'm done with wolf aammo. By the way that was the first time I tried wolf ammo........and the last.
