Gun plumbers weigh in?

Yes. In my experience, the 9mm Browning is not good at ejecting fired blanks.

The extractor pulls the empty out as the slide retracts. The ejection port is big enough for an empty casing or an unfired cartridge, but it is not long enough to eject a fired blank. The star crimp opens out and conforms to the shape of the chamber.
