7.65mm Parabellum Specifications

Sieger · 09-12-2003, 12:57 AM

Hi to All:

A fellow Forum member and I are trying to find the complete original specifications for the 7.65mm Parabellum cartridge and thought you could help us out.

We need to see the original specifications from DWM, and also, the Swiss military.

Can you lend us a hand?

You will have not luck with the Swiss military. Last year I also sought the technical specifications and drawing for the 7,65 mm Parabellum. To quote from H. U. Staub, Chief of Section for Infantry, Aircraft and Anti-Aircraft Weapons, Division for Infantry Weapons and Ammunition, Federal Office for Weapon Systems and Ammunition "no drawings of sensitive weapon components are passed on to private persons or third parties.". I do have some technical drawing of the 7,65 mm Parabellum for Lapua in Finland. Contact me for information on obtaining copies.

Perhaps the Swiss are producung the Parabellum on the QT and regard it as their secret weapon to win the next war?
