Any way to save 9mm cases fired from a Glock?
I already know about the $650 Australian roller dies.
I don’t recall having an issue with resizing brass from a Glock 9mm using RCBS and Lee carbide sizer dies. Lee sells a crimp die that idiot proofs the crimping process(I do recall having combo seater/crimper issues a time or 2) that also has a carbide ring in it as a fail safe.
Several places sell small base dies that knock out the bulge where Glock .40 barrels left the case unsupported, but I am thinking .40 Glocks don’t have that issue any more.
I recall dropping a factory new .40 S&W in a Gen 2 or early Gen 3 22/23 and being somewhat surprised that the online claims of how much the cartridge lolled around in the chamber were true.
Seriously not following what the issue is here. I reload 9mm from a glock dozens of times on a XL750. Not sure what issue you have.
Long-time reloader. The majority of my shooting is 9 mm loaded with brass that has gone through Glocks. No issues.
Neither my Lee classic dies or Dillon Dies have any issue resizing Glock brass…
I’m ASSUMING you’re referencing the “glock bulge”. If so, like others said it sorts itself out with common resizing dies. If you really want peace of mind, Lee makes the “bulge buster” die. But I’ve never needed it. For what it’s worth I’m handloading 9mm for a Glock gen 5 as well as a 2011, so opposite ends of the spectrum and still never had an issue in either.
There is no way to save it, but if you send the brass to me, I will use it in jewelry I sell to benefit the LBGTQ community.

Have you tried reloading Glock-fores 9mm cases? I have no issues doing so with Hornady or RCBS dies on either a LnL or Rockchucker
If your current sizing die won’t take out the case bulge at the web, you can use an undersize die to resize the case. I bought one from EGW years ago to resize +P+ cases. https://www.egwguns.com/undersize-reloading-die-9mm-luger
If you check a group of resized cases with a case gauge and they pass, you could still see bulge at the case web after seating a bullet. The issue is usually resolved by changing bullet seating depth.
No issue unless there’s a problem with the die you have or the chamber in your pistol.
No idea what the OP is talking about.
Been reloading 9mm and .40 out of Glocks for 15 years now…thousands of rounds. Never a problem.
RCBS carbide 3-die sets here.
What I’m referring to is the bulge where the chamber is unsupported on 9mm, couple of companies make a push through die for
.40 and .45 but not 9mm, I’ve read about using 9x18 Makarov carbide dies to remove bulge but the article says the carbide ring
usually breaks under the stress.
Regardless after resizing cases I drop them into a EGW 7 hole case gauge and those that were fired in Glocks have a obvious bulde
that prevents the case from dropping in fully, these I segregate to junk brass box.
Just get the EGW/Lee small base sizing die. You’re still going to have a small reject rate in the case gauge, but even 90% of those will pass the “plunk” test in your chamber. When I moved to the EGW die, my actual reject rate went from 4-5 per hundred, to less than 1 per hundred.
Pre Gen 5 Glock 9 millimeter pistols will bulge the brass slightly if loaded to +P pressures. I haven’t had any problems with brass failing the plunk test. I keep pressures moderate on my hand loads and I don’t use a whole lot of + P ammo.
Some reloaders take their sizing dies to a belt sander and remove a fraction of an inch. This allows you to push the brass higher up into the die and remove the bulge.
I recently started reloading brass fired from Glock 21 pistols. I have had to use a small base die for this. Even though 45acp runs at a lower pressure, brass fired from G21 doesn’t play well with my 1911 unless I squeeze it down a bit
I may try the sizing die reduction on a surface grinder with a spare Lee 9mm
I got some .45 brass a friend fired in a Llama years ago that more often than not wouldn’t enter an RCBS sizer.
Better yet looking at the shell holder I bet I can take 20-30 thousands off that and still retain case.
How is it that I’ve been through tens of thousands of rounds of 9mm and have only once encountered a case that’s bulged to the point that it wouldn’t just go through my sizer (Hornady) to get back to proper dimensions? Those cases were from a Masterpiece Arms Defender that fired out of battery when being bump fired. I just don’t see this as an issue worth hassling with.
From the sublime to the ridiculous .
Can’t say I’ve had trouble with 9mm brass from a Glock that I’m aware of.
Most recently, I did find some 9mm that had been badly bulged as it had been fired in something that had an overly generous feed ramp. It could have been a carbine or a pistol. Never found out.
Firing pin marks indicated it was not a Glock.
Its 9mm. When the brass is that damaged, I pitch it. Not worth buying special dies.
The challenge is trying to cull the bad stuff before it gets to the reloading machine.
OP, you’re overthinking this.
I’ve loaded with Redding and Dillon FL resizing dies. G19 gen 4 and gen 5. I load near max to duplicate my carry ammo and I’ve had no problems. The “Glock Bulge” is really more of an issue with higher pressure cartridges like .40 and 10mm.
