Stuff rocks.
The case is different from standard .45. It has a thicker bottom so it can handle higher pressures.
The big thing I have followed from its use is making sure that the gun being fed with it has springs able to deal with the bigger energic loading.

Yes, the case is different internally. It is indeed thicker in the web area. The external dimensions are, however, identical to the old .45 ACP. Again, this allows it to be chambered in any old 1911, with an unsupported portion in the lower chamber.
It does not matter one whit how much stronger the brass may be if it is left unsupported in this manner. While perfectly safe in pistols and carbines will fully supported chambers, this is incredibly dangerous in chambers that are not fully supported.
I would assume both your Glock and your USP carbine feature fully supported chambers, so of course you would have no trouble.
