The odds are that a 1918 Luger would be in 9x19mm Parabellum. However, there exists an extremely slight possibility of you encountering a former Swiss military pistol chambered in the 7.65x21 (also known as 7.65 Luger, 7.65 Parabellum, and .30 Luger). While the German military replaced the 7.62x21 cartridge in 1908 with the 9x19 cartridge, it remained the standard calibre for Swiss military pistols until the 1940s.
