Its parent cartridge was the 7.65 mmLugerParabellum, itself a descendant of the earlier 7.65 mm Borchardt cartridge.
The 9mmParabellum is chambered in pistols, submachineguns, and carbines.
Many police departments that use 9mm rounds in their handguns switched to this weight after the investigation of the FBI shootout in Miami in 1986, because the lighter 7.4 g (114 gr) loading used by the officers was found to be less effective than a heavier load like the 8.0g.
Die "9mmLuger" wurde 1902 mit der weltbekannten LugerPistole "P08" auf den Markt gebracht.
1902 änderte Luger den Hülsenmund der 7,65 auf gut 9mm und kürzte sie auf 19 mm.
Si vis pacem, para bellum" Heißt soviel wie: "Wer Frieden wünscht, bereitet den Krieg vor, wenn du den Frieden willst, bereite den Krieg vor" Die Bezeichnung "9mmLuger" ist aber korrekter und verdrängt das "Para".
The P-11 is a semi-automatic, locked breech pistol, chambered for the 9mmLugercartridge.
The Kel- Tec P-11 is the smallest and lightest 9mm ever made.

This was further developed into 9mmParabellum, essentially the cartridge case was straightened to accept a 9mm bullet instead of being bottlenecked to receive the smaller 7.65 bullet.
The 7.65 mmLugercartridge uses a shorter cartridge case than the 7.65 mm Borchardt, 7.63 x 25 mm Mauser, and 7.62x25 Tokarev cartridges, which are the about same length.
Considered as too weak by the German army it was replaced by the 9mmLugercartridge, which was created by removing the bottleneck of the 7.65 mmLugercartridge resulting in a tapered rimless cartridge.

The 9mmLuger (A firearm that is held and fired with one hand) pistol (Ammunition consisting of a cylindrical casing containing an explosive charge and a bullet; fired from a rifle or handgun) cartridge (9 x 19 mmParabellum, 9 x 19 mm NATO) was designed by (A portable gun) firearms designer Georg Luger.
The 9mmLugercartridge combines a flat (The path followed by an object moving through space) trajectory with moderate (A movement back from an impact) recoil, and fair stopping power.
Georg Luger designed the 9mmLugercartridge on demand of the German army to increase the power of his famous Lugerpistol which had been introduced in the 7.65 mmLuger caliber.
Georg Luger simply removed the bottleneck of the 7.65 mmLugercartridge and by doing this created a new 9mm (0.355 inch) straight walled rimless cartridge.
The original design used a 7.5 g (115 Gr) full metal jacketbullet, but after World War 2, this was changed to 8.0 g (124 Gr) to increase the accuracy of the 9mmLuger ammunition.
The 9mmLuger is also known as: 9×19 mm, 9mmParabellum (from the latin phrase "Si vis pacem, para bellum"—"If you want peace, prepare for war"), 9 Para, and 9mm.

The Lugerpistol was manufactured to very high standards and thus has a very long service life, far in excess of 100 years with proper maintenance and care.

Reasons for the demise of the Lugerpistol's military career have been its dislike of dirt and dust resulting in malfunctions and its inability to fire various types of (Projectiles to be fired from a gun) ammunition as it was designed for a specific power level.

Although the Nambu bears a superficial resemblance to the German Luger, the Nambu was not based on the Luger's design.
The Nambu was further hampered by its weak 8 mm ammunition which was considerably less powerful than comparable western rounds like the.45 ACP and the 9mmLuger.
Another variants are the Revolver Nambu Type 26 9mmPistol, Type 14 8 mm Nambu Pistol (additional info) and Nambu Type 94 8mm Pistol.

The Uzi fires the 9mmParabellumcartridge (though some variants fire.22LR,.41AE, or.45ACP) using an open-bolt, blowback operated design with a cyclic rate of 600 round/min with a muzzle velocity of ~400 m/s (~1,310 ft/s).
The weapon is 650 mm (25.6 in) long with stock extended and 470 mm (18.5 in) without.
Micro Uzi, at only 250 mm (9.84 in) in length barely larger than a standard pistol and about as small as the original Uzi design could be made.

Shooters new to.30 Luger chambered pistols have been known to see bargain basement prices on military surplus 7.62x25 and, thinking.30 Mauser is just another name for.30 Luger, buy this ammunition by the case lot to fire in their Lugers.

The Russians and other ex-Soviet nations use a 9mm x 18 mmcartridge which is basically between the 9mmLuger and the.380.
The 10 mm was the first developed as an improvement to the.45 ACP and has been adopted by the F.B.I. The 10 mm short (.40 SandW) was derived from the tests done by the F.B.I. It fits in a smaller firearm and produced the same ballistics.
In 1902 the DWM, along with Luger, by request of German Navy developed new round, 9x19mm Luger/Para[bellum], one of the most common pistolcartridges of the world, by re-necking the case of the 7.65mm Luger round.
Lugers were manufactured with different barrel lenghts - standart german army Pistole 08 (Luger M1908) had 102 mm barrels; Navy models featured 152 mm (6 in) barrels, and Artillery models featured 203 mm (8 in) barrels.
All lugers were very erconomical and accurate pistols, especially for the period those were developed in.
Theoretically it is impossible to shoot cartridges having 17 mm case length in 19 mm chamber, but in practice most 9 x 19 mmpistols are able to fire 9mm shorts.
It is also possible to "sink" the Minireflex suppressor thread end extension inside the slide by enlarging the slide bushing around the muzzle (a recess with 15 mm diameter on the front end of slide around the muzzle, deep enough to expose muzzle thread and relief cut).

The 9mm Parabellum pistolcartridge (9x19mm Luger, 9x19mm NATO) was introduced in 1902 by the German weapons manufacturer Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) for their Lugerpistol.
It is commonly known by the surname of the DWM engineer and firearms designer, Georg Luger, who was one of the primary people to work on the round and the pistol.
GLOCK - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia(Site not responding. Last check: )
Its first pistol model was the GLOCK 17 (so named because it was the 17th patent of the company), a 9mmLuger handgun with a 17 round capacity (unusually large at the time), introduced in the early 1980s as a response to the Austrian army asking for a new sidearm.
The GLOCK 22 is currently (as of mid-2005) the single most popular police sidearm in use in the United States; GLOCK pistols in general are in use by over 60% of the police officers in the US.
The GLOCK visibly does not have an external hammer and thus cannot be "cocked" or "uncocked" in the conventional manner and does not make the sort of sounds that are commonly heard in TV and movies.
A Luger, is an arm-locked pistol based on principles by Hiram Maxim.
Because the barrel is fixed to the frame, Lugers are very accurate pistols.
Upon recoiling with the barrel, a cam strikes the joint, causing the arm to hinge and the cartridge case to extract, beginning the firing sequence again.
