Can a 32 caliber revolver fire the 8mm round for a pistol?

There are several .32 calibre and 8mm pistol cartridges for pistols. Some of the 8mm cartridges are sold as .32 calibre cartridges in markets where the English system is in use. Cartridges include:8mm Nambu8mm Roth-Steyr.32 S&W Long.320 Revolver.327 Federal Magnum7.5mm Swiss Army Revolver8x27R French Revolver7.5mm Swedish NagantThese cartridges are NOT interchangeable with each other, at all, and it should not be attempted. If you remain uncertain about which cartridge is to be used with your revolver, I would strongly recommend you take it to a competent gunsmith, and have them determine this for you.


How effective was the Type 94 Japanese handgun in World War 2?

Effective as an 8mm pistol cartridge can be; as it fired the same round as the Type 14 Nambu. Took some understanding of the safety device, as the sear often was set off, if the safety wasn't on. Not nearly as produced as the regular Nambu pistol, and not nearly as attractive, which probably is why the pistol never really caught on in popularity.

What is the value of an 8mm rifle number 599?

You have a rifle which fires an 8mm cartridge, and there's a number 599 on it somewhere which may or may not be a serial number. That is all that can be derived from your question - what which 8mm cartridge it fires, not who the manufacturer is, not what model of rifle it is - the things one would need to know in order to assess the value of your rifle. So, there is no way to give an answer based on the extremely sparse information you've provided.

Will a 7.62 54r gun shoot any other shell?

The 7.62x54R is pretty much the only cartridge that that rifle will shoot. It is a RIMMED bottleneck cartridge, of relatively high power, and does not interchange with 30-06, .308, 8mm Mauser, or .303 British- rumors to the contrary. A POSSIBLE exception would be if the rifle had a chamber insert. These metal inserts are placed in the chamber, and are used with some rifles to permit the firing of pistol caliber ammunition for small game or inexpensive practice. The rifle would be a single shot, and rather awkward to fire.


What is the difference between a 8 x 57 and 8.2 x 57?

These are both designations for the 8mm Mauser cartridge. 8.2 x 57 was first used by Sako to distinguish between cartridges containing the larger .323" bullet from those with a .318" bullet. This had been the source of confusion for over a century. The designation is seen primarily in Scandanavian made rifles. The term 8mm Mauser is commonly used in the USA and elsewhere. I have also heard an unverified anecdote that the 8.2 designation was originally adopted by Sako because the Finnish game laws required a caliber larger than 8mm for moose. The .323 bullet of the 8mm Mauser cartridge is actually 8.2mm, so that's what Sako stamped on the barrels, making it legal for moose.
