About the Cartridge

This cartridge was introduced along with the Luger semi-automatic pistol. The pistol and cartridge was first adopted by the German Navy in 1904 and then by the German Army in 1908. This cartridge has since been adopted by the military of practically every non-Communist power. It has become the most popular and widely-used handgun cartridge in the world. Performance wise, the 9 mm cartridge has somewhat more power than the .38 Special but falls well short of the .357 Magnum.

Good Daily Carry Self Defence Handgun
By Pandaman on 03 May 2023
One of my favorite firearms I have ever owned. Not too light, but has enough weight to mitigate recoil for average shooters. Dead accurate out of the box at 25 yards, good grouping at 50yrds. Field stripping for cleaning is easy, just push down a covering plate, move slide a fraction of a inch to take the weight of the slide spring off and push the pin out, and off comes the slide. Pros: Accurate, light, compact, easy to conceal Cons: Surprisingly louder than other 9mm pistols due to the inspection port (I believe is the cause)
