Abstract
The present invention shows an improved 9 mm cartridge casing having greater strength and reliability. This cartridge casing is a substantially hollow cylinder of a suitable metallic material with a length of about nine hundred thousandths of an inch (0.900 in.). The casing is unique in that its external dimensions include a first end portion having an outer diameter of from about three hundred ninety-two thousandths of an inch (0.392 in.) to about four hundred one thousandths of an inch (0.401).
The casing also has an opposite end portion with an outer wall which uniformly decreases in diameter from a diameter of from about three hundred ninety-two thousandths (0.392 in.) to about four hundred and one thousandths of an inch (0.401 in.). to an diameter of about three hundred eighty thousandths of an inch (0.380 in.).
