Pistol 8mm Bullets

The Japanese used three different rounds in their principal service handguns, all of them uniquely Japanese: 8mm Nambu, 9mm revolver and 7mm Nambu. There is information about these calibers in Cartridges of the World, Revised 5th Edition by Frank C. Barnes, editor (DBI Books, Northbrook, Illinois, 1985) on pages 173 (7mm Nambu) and 182 (8mm Nambu). Oddly, the book does not include 9mm Japanese revolver, though almost ten times as many guns were made for it as the 7mm Nambu cartridge. The Japanese made several other foreign calibres, especially .32 ACP. These were principally for pistols privately purchased by officers, although a few Japanese-made guns were also chambered for rounds like .25 ACP or .32 ACP.

            In the photo above, the cartridge on the left is a 7mm Nambu for the Baby. The bottle-necked cartridge to the right of that is an 8mm Nambu for the Type 14, Type 94, Papa, Grandpa and a few others. Second from the right is a 9mm Japanese revolver (for the Type 26). The one on the far right with the red band is a Japanese-made .32 ACP, mostly used in imported pistols but also in some domestic ones like the Hamada.

Pistol 9mm TT Bullets

During the post-war decades both the USSR and its major rivals from NATO were deeply engaged in espionage and counter-espionage. These activities sometimes called for very special actions, usually described by typical Russian euphemism as “wet deeds”, or, in plain language, murders. These clandestine operations required some very special weapons, and during the early 1950s the designer Igor Ya. Stechkin (better known as the designer of the 9mm APS Stechkin automatic pistol), developed a very special weapon for the KGB. Externally this weapon looked much like flat tin cigarette case, but internally it held three short barrels and a trigger unit. The intended use of this weapon was obvious, but the necessary compact size effectively prohibited the use of a standard silencer. As a result, Stechkin developed a special type of ammunition, which required no silencer to be fired silently. The major source of the sound of gunshot is the large volume of hot gases, violently expanding from the muzzle and creating a sound wave. Stechkin avoided this problem by encapsulating the blast of the propellant within the cartridge case.

Pistol 9mm TT

One of the most well-known pistols of 20th century – a TT, designed by Feodor Vasilevich Tokarev in Tula, to this day widespread worldwide also is used without cardinal changes of a design. Pistols of Tokarev made now differ from Soviet basically only cheeks of the handle and presence manual safety a safety lock, without considering variants under a cartridge 9mm Luger. My short opinion concerning a TT – the pistol highly specialized, but for some problems is very good, and at times and is irreplaceable. Lacks are known for all. Low reliability of the worn out pistols. Rather fast a deposit of a fighting spring and deterioration of an earring. Stopping power of a bullet of 7,62 mm is not great. The small angle of slope of the handle does not promote accuracy of shooting snapshot. However with few used pistols of problems a minimum. Springs and earrings easily vary. Small stopping power and impracticality to instinctive shooting are compensated by shooting skills of the owner of the weapon which work enough regular trainings. The problem with a safety half-cock notch of a hammer is not especially actual for those who uses a TT in combat work, carrying a pistol in correctly picked up holster and was able with it addressing, and for constant carrying it is the weapon practically is never used.

In the 1970s, in an effort to make all of the five branches of U.S. Forces' weapons sync, the Joint Services Small Arms Planning Commission was formed to test a variety of guns to find a replacement for the M1911. The 9 mm round was selected for compliance with NATO standardization. In 1980, the Beretta 92S-1 design was chosen over entries from Colt, Smith & Wesson,Walther, the Star M28, and various Fabrique Nationale and Heckler & Koch models.

The Beretta 92F survived exposure to temperatures from -40°F to 140°F, being soaked in salt water, being dropped repeatedly on concrete, and being buried in sand, mud and snow. Additionally, the 92F proved a MRBF (mean rounds before failure) of 35,000 rounds. That number is often touted as the equivalent to five or six times the pistol's service life. While this is normally true in European militaries, armed forces of the United States normally subject sidearms to much more extensive use. The Iraq War, which featured frequent urban and room-to-room combat, has necessitated American soldiers to rely more heavily on their pistols.[4]The result, however, was challenged by the Army, and new tests were done by the Army. In 1984, the trials started again with updated entries from Smith & Wesson, Beretta, SIG Sauer, Heckler & Koch, Walther, Steyr, and Fabrique Nationale. Beretta won this competition, but there was a new trial, the XM10 competition, in 1988. This resulted in two different trials that were more limited but resulted in the Beretta design being kept, with an update to it happening during the same time frame.
