Or you can just buy a 9x18mm gun and be up to your ears in ammo

Whoo! Good choice.
Is there a Skorpion that uses 9mm mak or am I making that up?

The Vz. 82 model.

id prefer a semiauto gun common enough to get spare parts for, a skorpion would just waste precious ammo.

There's a line of Ukrainian pistols that are full sized 9x18's

Me, I'd go to the ends of the earth to track down an FN Barracuda.
If you had both cylinders you would have 3 ammo choices for 1 weapon.

.357
.38 Spec
9x19mm

The philips and rodgers model 47 can fire like 50 types of ammo from one cylinder.

Damn. That's pretty cool

Any cartridge in the 357/38/9mm range can be fired, auto or wheelgun caliber. Its cool. Its most accurate with 357/38 special but in a pinch can shoot anything. It wa salso a match grade gun so smooth accurate trigger.
