I know it fires a 7.62x29 round Typically, 7.62 in a handgun is a .32 caliber.

The
wiki for 7.62x25 has it being 0.31 diameter. The interesting thing about this cartridge is that it's a small diameter, high velocity FMJ bullet that can defeat Class II body armor.

Actually 7.62 is a 30 caliber, not 32. 7.65 is a .32 and the .32 ACP round was called the 7.65 in Europe(actually 7.65 rounds out to about .31 but you know how it is). 9MM is a .355.
