9mm Berdan primed cartridge ID

[RamRoddoc]

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.

I suspect that ammo is for machine guns and not to be used in most pistols. The generous chambers on a Glock will allow more expansion with an over pressure round.

I'd be curious of the velocity of these particular rounds.

I have a few hundred 9mm's from somewhere in the Middle East.

They are corrosive, have hard primers--not Berdan. Often, they require two hammer strikes to go bang.

They are pretty hot, but no more so than Corbon.

IPSC power factor of just over 150 in a Sig. 226.

The brass seems to be reloadable an infinite number of times.
