I believe the translation of the white label is: "Only for shooting in machine pistol" I can't translate all the verbiage on the cartridge boxes. In the 60's a cartridge collector told me that the wording detailed something like when the bullet was mfg, the case, it's composition and when the cartridge was assembled. It was a long time ago but I think it explains why so much info is printed. The Germans must of had a Consumer Product Agency the soldiers could go to with product complaints if there was a miss fire.:cheers
