9×19mm pistol cartridge. Used in select pistols and SMGs. In-game description

9x19mm Rounds are a type of ammunition in DayZ.

Overview

9x19mm Rounds are a low-power pistol cartridge, used by the SG5-K submachine gun, as well as the CR-75, Mlock 91, and P1 pistols.

They are found boxed, loose or pre-loaded in magazines. A box of 9x19mm contains 25 rounds.

As a popular caliber, for both law enforcement and personal protection, they are ubiquitous across Chernarus, Livonia and Sakhal, making them very easy to find.

Performance

While by design a low-caliber pistol cartridge, the 9x19mm is supersonic regardless of platform, giving it quite a kick despite its size. This makes it an upgrade over the contemporary .380 ACP, but its much lower mass doesn’t quite put it up there with the likes of the .45 ACP cartridge.

Its supersonic nature limits its usefulness when used in conjunction with a suppressor, as a noticeable bullet crack will still be generated when firing.

Performs best against unarmored targets and has a short effective range of roughly 100m.

Trivia

• The 9mm ammunition is based on the real world 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge. It was developed by Georg Luger in 1902 by necking out and cutting down the case on his earlier 7.65 Parabellum cartridge.
• The 9mm Parabellum cartridge was first used in the German Luger P08 semi-automatic service pistol. During World War I it was also chambered in the Mauser C.96 machine pistol and Bergmann MP-18 submachinegun. After World War I the 9×19mm cartridge was used in other pistols and submachineguns. Today the 9x19mm is used by armies and law enforcement agencies worldwide.
• The cartridge had the designation "Parabellum" because it was the motto of armaments manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM), the makers of the 7.65mm and 9mm Luger pistols. Para Bellum was derived from the Latin adage Si vis pacem, para bellum ("If you seek peace, prepare for war"). The phrase is first attributed to the Roman author Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus in his work De Re Militari.
