I just bought what appeared to be an unfired P89 (totally stock) and shot it for the first time yesterday.

It is a 315-9XXX number.

This is factory S&B ammo. The primers appear perfectly normal when shot in my other 9's

Blazer Brass and Independence, both new factory loads, do the same in this pistol, and also appear normal in my other 9's.

Gun seems great but these primers got my attention.

Any thoughts on 'em? Safe or no?

The primers from rounds fired out of my P89 look the same. I've had it since 91 or 92 and have run several thousand rounds down the pipe with no problems.

They look the same as the primers I got firing 45ACP thru 2 Taurus 1911s. If you look at the firing pin hole you will see that it probably has be chamfered slightly. Gun makers do this to keep rounds from hanging up on the edges of the firing pin hole.  Yes, you gun is perfectly safe.
