  Some will I have had the 9mm CCI cycle my S & W 6906. A friend tried it in his Glock and it almost cycled it, however it broke the plastic "bullet" that holds the shot.
  
  I rush in where others flee.

  I can cycle it in my Browning Hi-Power if I put it a lighter slide return spring.
  Makes a neat package for starlings. (I avoid "snake" areas)

  Depends mightily on the firearm and the load as noted above. There have been a wide variety of loadings, including a large number of experimental US military types in .45, but your best bet would be to have one in the chamber and be sure you hit with the first shot!

  Sorry Iconoclast, I have to disagree - Your best bet would be to get a revolver
  
  Buy low, short high...
