As someone previously stated, quite correctly, it is safe to fire.380 ACP ammo in a pistol chambered for 9x18mm Makarov. He was also correct that doing the reverse, i.e. Firing 9x18mm Makarov ammo in a weapon chambered for.380 ACP (also known as 9mm Kurz), would be extremely dangerous and should be attempted under no circumstances. Since the casing of the.380acp (also known as a 9x17mm) is shorter than the 9mm luger/parabellum (also known as the 9x19mm), the.380 will go too far into the chamber. This means the firing pin will not strike the primer because the.380 is 2mm further into the chamber than the 9mm.
