    I often wonder why ?

    Just like the French MAS 35A that you can put a sleeve in the chamber to shoot .32 acp, you can shoot a lesser caliber in the AMT, like .30 sloppy chicken.
    Might have to modify the magazine a little...

    So, are the .30SC offerings the same size as .380’s or 9mm’s ?

    If they aren’t smaller than regular 9mm compacts, then I have no interest.

    Please reply if you know.

    S&W Shield is same size (other than bore diameter). That info comes from what I read and comparing Shields (one on top of the other) at my LGS

    All you get is more capacity and slightly better penetrative than a 9mm and slightly less expansion

    I presume the pricey Nighthawk 1911 is also the same size as traditional 1911
