en1=The 9x25mm Mauser (or 9 mm Mauser Export) was a cartridge developed for theMauser C96 service pistol. The cartridge was first produced by DWM in 1907 and later by German munitions makers Geco and RWS throughWorld War II . Other manufacturers included Société Française des Munitions ofParis ,France as well as various munitions factories inAustria andHungary in the 1930s and 40s [citeweb|url=http://www.municion.org/iphp/basedatos2.php?buscarpor=Pais&como=empiece+por|title=Municion.org Historical Ammunition Data|accessdate=2008-06-06] .Mauser pistols in this relatively powerful caliber were primarily intended for export to
Africa ,Asia andSouth America . The 9 mm Mauser Export cartridge was produced from 1907 to 1914 and then later from approximately 1930 to 1945.The basis of this cartridge was the
7.63x25mm Mauser . The case length is the same as the 7.63x25mm Mauser, but the case is straight and does not have a bottleneck shape. The 9 mm Mauser should not be confused with the9mm Parabellum (9x19mm Luger) or the 9x23mm Steyr.In the 1930s a handful of Austrian, Hungarian and Swiss submachine guns and machine carbines were chambered for this caliber. Originally known as the Steyr-Solothurn S1-100, the Steyr MP30 and
MP34 were adopted by the Austrian Army and police and manufactured until 1940 [citeweb|url=http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg81-e.htm|title=Steyr - Solothurn S1-100 / MP-34 submachine gun (Switzerland/Austria)|accessdate=2008-06-06] . SIG automatic carbine models MKMO, MKMS, MKPO and MKPS in this caliber were produced in Switzerland until the end of 1942. ThePál Király -designed "Géppisztoly" 39M and 43M in 9x25mm Mauser were produced by Danuvia in Hungary from 1939 through the end ofWorld War II .ee also
