Thank you !

I will order the lee loader kit in 9mm luger and try it on starline cases. It's low risk for the price of the kit (around 30 $...).

Yes, the civil war in spain was a bloody and sad affair...many families got broken and separated and many people had to leave the country because of their politic opinions...and that's why my family is now half settled in Spain and half in France.

hivel37 : Yes, many people are fond of 9L. It's a pleasant caliber and the Star, Astra and Llama guns were good guns, but the spanish government decided to stop the production of 9L and adopt the 9mm para for army and police when the country joined the NATO in the 80's, and now finding this ammo is like searching a needle in a straw loft. I still can find 9mm steyr which is quite similar to 9mm Largo, but it's 40€ (around 56$...) the box of 50 rounds

....it's not a caliber for crisis time!!

Best regards to both.

Juan.
