Why is the 9mm handgun so popular in gangster movies?

Yes, a 9MM Nazi Handgun (WWII). What is the approximate value of the pistol with a Nazi leather holster?

Undoubtedly, currently the most popular handgun in America is the Glock 17 which fires the 9MM Luger cartridge. Rapidly catching up however are the 40 caliber handguns offered by Glock. In close second would be 9MM and 40 caliber models from: - Sig Sauer - H & K - Beretta - Taurus - Ruger

9mm Luger. The CZ is a great pistol.

The short answer is yes. Some police carry 9mm. semi-autos.

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.

45 = .451 9mm = .355 The .45 handgun throws the bigger and heavier bullet. The 9mm fires a lighter and smaller bullet, but at a higher speed. The size of the guns that fire either of these rounds could be the same size. Both 9mm pistols and .45 pistols come in full sized guns, compact guns, and even sub-compact or micro sized.

No. There are more than a dozen DIFFERENT "9mm" cartridges, and they do not interchange. The most common is 9mm Parabellum- also known as 9mm Luger or 9x19. It does NOT interchange with 9mm Kurz, 9mm Corto, 9mm Makarov, 9mm Ultra, etc.

South American make.

Luger 9mm pistol

100-300 or so

It can fire any type of 9mm parabellum ammunition...9mm para is the same as 9x19

Either the SIG or S&W

As a general rule, no.

The M-9 9mm Handgun.

They use a SIG 9mm handgun.

around $30-40

The question is so vague as to be meaningless. The answer depends very, very much on the details of where, how, and what exactly a "9mm" is (9mm handgun? 9mm rifle? 9mm assault rifle? 9mm machine pistol? something else?).

It depends on what cartridges you are comparing. Some 9mm is. Also, 9mm is also availabe in Plus P.

Obtain a manual from the maker or find a gunsmith

Beretta model 92. It is a 9mm cal.

Usually not. The 9mm Parabellum catridge is longer than the .380, as a result, a 9mm magazine is also bigger, and the magazine will not fit in the .380 magazine well.

i recently bought a 9mm tanfoglio handgun for 350$ it was used but had never been fired

NO!! Although the bullet diameter is the same, the case length is different and should not chamber in the 380 caliber handgun.

If you mean a ruger, 100-600 depending on specifics

gun shop, gun show.

100-260 or so

A few hundred to multiple thousands depending on specifics

9mm semi-automatic handgun.

Between $600 - $700, new in box.

50-5000 USD depending on specifics

It depends on what you mean, but "average" is very difficult to define. A Glock 19 is an extremely common gun. It is a mid-sized 9mm handgun, and is Glock's best seller.

No. Generally speaking, you can only use the correct caliber magazine for any given handgun, and .380 and 9mm are not interchangeable.

DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS!!. Never fire ammunition in a weapon that it is not chambered for.

Standard issue currently is the 9mm Beretta M-9.

It depends on the model and condition. The best way to get a value is to check with a dealer.

100-450 or so

Read the markings on the gun. If it doesn't say 9mm, then NO. If you don't know what the proper ammunition is, consult a gunsmith.

It depends on what you mean. 380 is the same as 9x17, but if you mean standard 9mm, that is 9x19. It's too long and too high pressure to use in a .380.

It depends on what you mean. Handgun magazines don't fit handguns based on size, they fit based on which model you have. Some models of pistol have various capacity magazines...for instance, for a Sig 229 in 9mm, you can get 10 round magazines and 15 round magazines.

100-350 USD or so

A few hundred to multiple thousands depending on exact configuration, age and condition.

A bullet from a handgun can travel, on average, about a mile.

100-1000 USD and up depending on specifics

check on the Glock model 19.... a 9mm

9mm and 380 both use bullets with a diameter of .355. However, the cases are a different size. .380 is also known as .380 auto, 9mm Kurtz, 9mm Corto, 9mm short or 9x17. 9mm typically refers to 9x19mm also known as 9mm Parabellum or 9mm Luger. You cannot fire a 9mm Parabellum cartridge from a .380 handgun. The 9mm cartridge will not fit into the chamber of the gun. However, if you were to pull…

You do not mention which 9 mm cartridge you are asking about. As the 9mm Luger (parabellum) is the most popular handgun load in the world, I assume this is the one? The maximum listed range is about 2200 metres. Actual distance will vary depending on the grain weight of the bullet (for the 9mm luger, from 100 to 147), barell length, and other factors.

The 9mm pistol has been used by the military of several nations, by 100's of police forces, and as a defensive firearm by private citizens. It is also used for sport shooting.

Not reliably. The 9mm bullet is a bit smaller in diameter than a .38, and the cartridge has no rim- it will push into the cylinder. Brass is also likely to split if it DOES fire.

It has no original model. I think it is Japaniese. Ah well. I think it is a 9mm.
