9mm Berdan primed cartridge ID

[JBWJr]

Can anyone ID the following cartridges:
They are 9mm and Berdan primed.
Thanks.

The rectangular pin strikes bring up a few questions, also.

Egyptian??

 

[JBWJr]

Possibly.
I thought it might be Turkish.
Belongs to a friend of mine.
He found several, the hard way (being Berdan primed), while decapping and resizing a few thousand cases.

Egyptian??

I do believe you are correct.
Found this on http://www.cartrology.com/browse-ammunition.php?page=18

That stuff is ususally load hot because it was to be shot out of SMGs.

[GA-Silver]

wonder if its corrosive?

 

[JBWJr]

Egyptian.
Berdan primed.
Corrosive is probably a good bet.

Rectangular firing pin strike=Glock

 

[JBWJr]

Agreed.
We first considered some sort of rectangular-pinned SMG but after finding a few cartridges that were chubbed up from a half-vast, semi-supported chambering system, we knew Glock had been involved.
