Happy 9mm Day to the 9x19mm, 9mm Luger, 9mm Parabellum (“para bellum” meaning “prepare for war” in Latin), 9mmP, 9mm NATO, 9×19, simply the “9mm,” or whatever you prefer to call it.

        • What does the Blackout in 300 BLK supposedly stand for?

          (I’m so far behind the times I just recently found out ‘Creedmore’ was the name of the first NRA range.)

        • It was designed to be an ideal sound suppressed and flash suppressed caliber, so I suppose “blackout” was thought to describe this sort of sensory deprivation theme.

  1. Wait, I thought it was talk like a pirate day. You mean I should’ve been bustin’ caps instead? Arrrrrrrrrr!

  2. Based on the brass I pick up at the range, 9mm is by far the most popular handgun cartridge today.

    At least among rednecks who never learned to clean up after themselves.

  3. Just wanted to say hit the range with my 9mm AR and Blue Dot in it rocks. Load that stuff up hot and let it rip. Good times 🙂

  4. Happy Birthday parabellum! You look damn good for one hundred and fourteen years young and still lightly kicking.
