30 super carry, collective yawn

I love seeing new products coming to the market but two extra shots in a 13rd magazine, 1" more penetration and 13ft lbs more energy than a 9mm, really?

Current issue of American Rifleman Magazine has a giant Puff Piece article on this Super Carry. Nowhere did it say if this round requires a locked breech pistol. I then followed online links to a site which says it does. This is a stain on the NRA’s publications. They did say pressures are equivalent to the 327 Magnum revolver rounds. I would like a comparison with the old Pederson designed 32 French Long, which evolved from the WWI Pederson Device made for our M 1903 Spgfd. Rifles, with a machined cut in the left side of their receivers. Somebody should make a 7.65mm French Long adaption, to shoot roll crimped lead bullets, like the 327 Mag.’s! John Pederson is a hard act to follow in auto pistol designs.

I've always wondered if guys that like to shoot ridiculously large caliber handguns didn't get to play with cherry bombs, block busters or M80's when they were kids, ha ha.
