Aguila 9mm

[djv38]

Picked up 500 rounds in 124 gr.

It was under $10/50, so I figured why not.

Everything fired fine decently accurate for what it is, but a little under powered IMO. Fired 100 rounds tonight and had 2 failure to lock the slide back. I may have limp wristed a bit, but the mags were not the issue as they did lock the slide back later. Maybe I need to swap out my FNP-9's recoil spring (over 4600 rounds through it now).

Anybody else have experience with this ammo?

I've used it a few times. I too found it to be a little under powered, and dirty.

The muzzle of the gun wasn't too bad, then I ran a patch through the barrel, and geez, I was surprised. I've fired 200 rounds of other brands that was less dirty.

I purchased 500 rounds of Aguilar 22LR for Umerax HK MP5 SD. Worked fine, but much dirtier than CCI and bulk Federal from Walmart.

I had a squib round yesterday. Thankfully it made it out of the barrel, but I still checked it. Slide hardly went back.

Hhmmm....Well, I shot a box of 9mm 117 grain yesterday to sight in a gun with a new rear sight, fully expecting it to be quite dirty & checking for squibs whenever I wasn't certain where the bullet hit....Well, no squibbs, don't know about it being underpowered (& don't particularly care), and I have to say that it was the cleanest ammunition that I've ever fired. Given what I've read, I was quite shocked. I think I'm going to look for some more of this stuff.--Patrice

Never fired it before. I did try Remington UMC bulk and it was basically unshootable and dirty like no other ammo I have ever shot. If it's weak ammo I doubt that I would gamble a box on it.

I have used it before and found it to be of poor quality and not 100% reliable, FTF, FTE, 2nd strike with firing pin and very low quality propellant (soot). I never checked mfr date or lot as this company is outside the US. However the price is always low and cost effective. 9MM & 40 S&W.
