Dunno ?? The 40 Short & Wimpy version should handle the heat I just don't think the angles and dangles are right for that caliber. I recently asked a bunch of questions regarding using the 357SIG in the 40 version of the BHP. Whole bunch of folks said walk away from that idea. So I think the 40 S&W is all the BHP will digest. Remember the 9x23 ? Wasn't that a dillon inc bastardized conflagration ?

Have ya played with the CZ52 and the 224 er 223 Timbs (?).....my new project. Why ? Because it's there......:o)

The *Timbs/Tokarev* works in the Soviet TT-33 *Tokarev* pistol, too, the one I've got was Polish made and is of very nice quality, and also suitable for rework to 9x21/ 9x23, .38 Super, or 9mm Largo. The 9x23 case are a good deal stronger in the case web area, a nice touch that makes them a top choice.

And possibilities for the Timbs in a PPS-43 or CZ-26 SMG or PPSh-41 SMG [71 round drums!] are there, too. The velocities of the Timbs/Tokarev out of longer 10-12-inch barrels offer interesting possibilities, as does using the heavier 62-grain bullets of the M855 5,56mm round for better penetration with a 1:9 twist barrel.

You ever noticed that the barrel locking lugs of a TT-33 Tokarev go clear around the barrel? They look like something out of a bank vault design.
