Sig 9mm

Postby sochr000 on Sat Sep 19, 2009 11:40 pm

I tried to look it up on wikipedia, and the Sig website and couldn't find it anywhere, so I'm asking all of you.

Does sig make a 9x18 pistol?

I was at my local gun store the other day wasting time, and they have a used sig that I was taking a look at, I can't remember what model, but it looks like a 239. The thing that confuses me though, is that on the slide or frame it had 9mm stamped into it, but right after that it had a strange word stamped in, and iirc it was Haug, or Zaug (some 4-letter german-looking word). I asked the guy who was working and he wasn't sure if it was 9x19, or 9x18.

Thanks

That'd be 9x17 = .380.

9X19 = 9mm Luger = 9mm Parabellum

9X18 = 9mm Russian Makarov

9X17 = 9mm Kurz (short) = .380 ACP
