That could be a side effect of the Nine: even my Hi-Power hates anything but ball ammo; but I doubt many of the troops are carting around their own store bought specialty rounds.
Nines suck for lot's of reasons. Their original intent was merely to wound because european armies were expected to remove their wounded from the field and that took lots of resources.
No, but regardless of the weapon, whether it functioned flawlessly or not, the primary issue still is the unpowered value of the 9mm round and it's inability to stop a determined foe on the battlefield.
