No, it went to a 9mm “Kurz” as opposed to a 9mm Luger or Parabellum. Big difference.
Not quite. The .380 ACP (Automatic COLT Pistol) pistol cartridge was developed by firearms designer John Browning. It was introduced in 1908 by Colt.
Euros renamed this American cartridge 9mm kurtz. But it’s ours, and was in inches first.
