1946-era Luger Cartridge Descriptions

Hi,

Again, these are not original German source materials, and thus, are suspect.

I'd like to see any 9mm Parabellum round loaded to 1,500 fps?!?!? This is surely a myth.

Most of the early post-war materials I have read on the Luger are misinformation.

Stick with the original German factory or military specs. for the truth.

Please also note that the two subject cartridges in the photo are Western Cartridge Company loadings, not original German ones.

Just some thoughts.
