I am familiar with the reasoning of 'stretching' the 9 x 19 chamber out to 9 x 21 (to get around some Euro restrictions on military caliber ammunition) but I am puzzled as to why the Israelis should be involved in the development of this cartridge...
Does anyone know why Israel Military Industries got involved with this caliber cartridge??? It seems to me that it would take up valuable manufacturing time/facilities that could be better used to make more useful ammunition for the Israelis' own defense... I've read the Wiki on the 9 x 21 but it doesn't tell the whole story...

Post-war reparations. Many European countries agreed to purchase IMI stuff to help bolster the new country of Israel. This included odd pairings like Germany buying UZIs and the manufacture of 9X21 for countries who had a prohibition on Military calibers. |

It looks as original as Persian holsters get, which is subject to some doubt.
