You're probably thinking of the 9x19, also known as the 9mm Parabellum or 9mm Luger. It's pretty much standard through all militaries, save for those which adopted Soviet weaponry exclusively during the Cold War. While it remains in current use, it is hardly a new development - the cartridge was first fielded in 1908 in the Luger pistol.
The 9mm Parabellum cartridge made by the Reminton-Peters cartridge company.
A pistol chambered for .380 ACP (also known as 9x17) can fire that cartridge and only that cartridge. You cannot shoot 9mm Parabellum (9x19) or any other 9mm cartridge in it.
9mm and 380 both use bullets with a diameter of .355. But the answer to the question you're probably asking is, no, you cannot fire a 9mm parabellum cartridge from a .380 handgun. The 9mm cartridge is different than the .380 cartridge. Even though both are 9mm in diameter, the overall cartridge lengths are different.
Depends on the loading of the cartridge, and the gun it is shot from, but the 9mm Parabellum (9mm Luger) cartridge travels between 1200 and 1400 feet per second on the average.
No. While there are several different 9mm cartridges, none of them interchange with a 7.62 cartridge. You need to clarify your question- there is no such cartridge as a 7.62 9mm. There are 7.62 pistols, but 9mm is a caliber, not a type of firearm.
9mm Short is another term for the .380 ACP cartridge.
The .357 Magnum is a larger cartridge, can fire a heavier bullet, and has about twice the energy of a 9mm Parabellum cartridge.
luger were made to fire a 9mm cartridge or the 30 luger cartridge. a 9mm cartridge will not chamber in a 30 cal luger pistol............
9mm Largo is 9x23, but be careful not to confuse it with the 9x23 Winchester. They have the similar dimensions, but the 9mm Winchester cartridge is loaded to a higher pressure and is not safe to fire in a pistol designed for the 9mm Largo.
any weapon that can fire the 9mm cartridge................
The 9mm Parabellum is the proper name of the 9mm Luger cartridge.
No. The .380 cartridge is sometimes called 9mm Corto or 9mm Kurz, but in addition to a different cartridge shape, the basic design of the two pistols is generally different. MOST .380s are blowback, and 9mms are locked breech- due to the higher power of the 9mm Parabellum cartridge. Also, please understand that there are SEVERAL different 9mms- the 9mm Largo, 9mm Browning Long, 9mm Steyr, 9mm Makarov, 9mm Glisenti, 9mm Magnum etc, besides the 9mm Parabellum.
