Can you fire a 9mm luger in a 380?

No, the calibers and chamberings are completely different. It is not safe to attempt to fire any caliber of ammunition in a gun, other than what is stated on the barrel. actually the 380 caliber is almost equal to the 9mm. the 380 caliber is often refered to as a 9mm short. the difference is the 9mm case is slightly bigger then the 380 case and the 380 bullet might be a little lighter.......................

What is difference between a 9mm caliber bullet and a 380 bullet?

None, the projectile diameter is the same for both - .355. If you are asking about a complete round of ammunition, the 9mm case is 19mm long and the 380 case is 17 mm long. This cartridge is called the ".380 Auto" for use with an automatic pistol. However, the most common 9mm round is the "9mm Lugar". This cartridge has a heavier bullet and a longer case, thus a larger muzzle velocity and energy than the .380 Auto.


What is the difference between 9MM caliber to 380 caliber?

.380 ACP is 9x17mm, while the 9mm Parabellum/Luger is 9x19mm. Additionally, the 9x19 uses heavier projectiles, and also generates higher chamber pressure, necessitating a locked breech pistol, whereas most .380/9x17 pistols use an unlocked breech.

Glock is a brand. 9mm is a caliber size. So, there is no difference between a 9mm glock and a 9mm of another brand as far as caliber size.
