9mm +
The 9×19mm Parabellum is a firearms cartridge that was designed by Georg Luger and introduced in 1902 by the German weapons manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) (German Weapons and Munitions Factory) for its Luger semi-automatic pistol. For this reason, it is designated as the 9mm Luger by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute (SAAMI), and the 9 mm Luger by the Commission Internationale Permanente pour l'Epreuve des Armes à Feu Portatives (CIP). The name Parabellum is derived from the Latin motto of DWM, Si vis pacem, para bellum ("If you seek peace, prepare for war").Under STANAG 4090, it is a standard cartridge for NATO forces as well as many non-NATO countries.According to the 2014 edition of Cartridges of the World, the 9×19mm Parabellum is "the world's most popular and widely used military handgun and submachine gun cartridge." In 2007, Newsweek claimed that "about 60 percent of the firearms in use by police are 9mms" and credited 9×19mm Parabellum pistol sales with making semiautomatic pistols more popular than revolvers. The popularity of this cartridge can be attributed to the widely held conviction that it is effective in police and self-defense use. Its low cost and wide availability contribute to the caliber's continuing popularity.
Hi there,
I purchased a small hand gun (mildly on a whim) a couple of weeks ago, and am feeling more unsafe with it in my apartment than anticipated. As there is no return policy, I am looking to sell it here. I bought a Smith & Wesson M&P Shield with 25 Hornady Critical Defense Bullets, 50...
I’m looking to pass this ammo on to someone that needs it. I received this as a bonus to a trade I made and am pretty set on defensive 9mm ammo. I will trade for a glock 19/17/20 gen 4/5 mag.
Thanks.
Red.
I have 2 1000 Count boxes of Berrys Bullets in 9mm 147 Grain. These are becoming more and more expensive from the manufacturer and obviously demand is through the roof.
Will deliver between Wilsonville and Albany.
180 Each or both for $325
Selling 200 rounds of 9mm Blazer ammo and 197 rounds of 9mm range brass for $75.
Brass was cleaned with soap and water, but has not been tumbled, nor primers removes.
