Just to be clear - You're talking about "Mauser Export" 9mm cartridge??? The DWM #487 cartridge??? From about 1908...No relation to 9mm Parabellum or 9x21...
I have never seen one in actuality; only pictures & descriptions in COTW.
As to 9x21, I would have no problem handloading this cartridge. A cut-down 38ACP/38 Super cartridge can be made to work. Loaded to 9mm Parabellum specs & bullets. Run through 9mm "Luger" dies, bullet seated deeper to 1.173" OAL...
Some pictures here of 9x21 Artillery Luger & C96 Mauser are to my mind as good as 9x19; even better in case of Persian Artillery shown by Sergio...I wish I could have had it...
