Cartridges in this catalog:
380 ACP
380 ACP is the standard compact carry cartridge. It drives .355-inch bullets at modest velocity from small, lightweight pistols, making it a popular choice for concealed carry where minimizing gun size matters more than maximizing terminal performance.
9mm Luger
9mm Luger (9x19mm Parabellum) is the most widely used centerfire pistol cartridge in the world. It offers a practical balance of capacity, recoil, and terminal performance in semi-automatic pistols and carbines, with exceptional component availability and a mature reloading base covering everything from light practice loads to hot defensive loads.
