    Default brass/aluminum/steel case ammo for glocks?

    I know Glocks need jacketed ammo and I know Marlin runs cci aluminum in his 10mm but I have yet to find any consensus on what's good or decidedly not good for glocks (specifically .45ACP if it makes a difference) so I'm throwing this out there.

    ETA: I voted other just so I can see the results :roll:

    Can't say as I've ever met a Glock that wouldn't eat any factory load. Seen some issues with weak handloads, but not manufactured ammo. That is one of the beauties of the Glock weapon.

    I don't plan on doing handloading anytime soon. Can't do it right now cause I'm in an apartment and I'd never shoot someone else's handloads.

    Thanks for the input.

    Well, I might trust his handloads but I'm not about to buy Unkle JimBob's handloads from JoeBob at the jerky, I mean gun show and try them.

    I have done both brass and AL. in mine, with no problem. Can't say to Steel, not much in steel cased 10MM out there. . Haven't heard many problems with steel in other calibers though.

    the only things safe in a glock are those 'snap-caps'!

    Just stay away from unknown .40 reloads.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
