Don’t get thrown for a loop by the “9x19” printed on this Turkish ammunition’s boxes. That’s just foreign-speak for 9mm, making this ammo the right pick for plinking, target shooting, and any other kind of recreational activity you might bring a 9mm handgun to.

This cartridge has a 124 grain projectile, though we have not yet determined its muzzle velocity. The bullet’s full metal jacket enhances more reliable feeding and wards off rapid barrel fouling. Its inability to expand following penetration makes it a suboptimal choice for personal protection.

Özkursan’s cases appear to be made out of brass, but they are in fact steel cases with brass plating. The plating does help them to feed more reliably into a semi-auto’s chamber, although steel cases are virtually useless for reloading and this ammo will attract a magnet. These cartridges also have Berdan primers, which perform indistinguishably from the more common Boxer primer. This Turkish-made ammo is non-corrosive.

Q: Is this stuff for real?

Posted On: 4/25/2021 By: z

A: Yes sir.

Q: Is this casing reloadable

Posted On: 4/25/2021 By: Duane Rohrer

A: No sir, steel cases aren't considered reloadable unless you have special tools and the patience of a saint. Steel lacks the elasticity of brass, so a steel case doesn't return to its original dimensions once fired.

Q: Is this a NATO round? From what I read, NATO rounds are hotter than US rounds, sometimes close to +P which, for my P365, the manufacturer suggests limited use.

Posted On: 4/21/2021 By: ejdalise

A: Thanks for reaching out! What you read about 9mm NATO is true, though it's not quite as "hot" as 9mm +P. That said, this isn't 9mm NATO ammo, so it's not going to cause accelerated wear to your semi-auto pistol's moving parts.

Q: Is this ammo indeed steel cased? The pictures do not look like steel casings.

Posted On: 4/21/2021 By: Robert S.

A: Good to hear from you Robert! This ammo does indeed have steel cases. The manufacturer brass plates them for smoother cycling in a semi-auto as well as improved corrosion resistance,

Q: Is this ammo ok to use in a glock 17?

Posted On: 4/18/2021 By: Josh

A: Yes sir, this ammo ought to function correctly in any 9mm firearm.

Q: Is this ammo ok to use in a 9mm ruger pc charger and S&W M&P shield ez

Posted On: 4/11/2021 By: Alan

A: Yes sir, this 9mm ammo should function correctly in both of those firearms.

Q: After ordering Ammo how long before I receive it.

Posted On: 4/9/2021 By: Robert R Reynolds

A: Thanks for reaching out Robert! Transit times are generally 1-5 business days depending on your distance from our Knoxville, Tennessee warehouse.

Q: I have a new HK VP9. Will this ammo work for this? Also, this ammo is very cheap compared to others. Are there any differences or anomalies a person should know; performance, shelf life etc...

Posted On: 3/30/2021 By: Tom Dodson

A: Thanks for reaching out Tom! Your HK VP9 is a great handgun and should run any 9mm well, including this. This is indeed inexpensive ammo, and its quality is not really on par with what you should expect from an American manufacturer or a good foreign firm like Prvi Partizan or Fiocchi. The PRIMARY reason this ammo is cheaper than usual is its steel cases. Steel cases are a lot more cost-effective than brass ones, but they are not suitable for handloading (not a problem if you don't reload your empty cases), and they also let more fouling enter the pistol's action during ignition (because steel is less elastic than brass, and doesn't expand as efficiently to seal the chamber during ignition). I've fired 100 rounds of this ammo myself, though, and had no misfires or failures to extract. I would trust it for target practice, where a malfunction simply means inconvenience. Shelf life should be decades so long as you keep it out of direct sunlight, away from moisture, and in a stable temperature.

Q: Is this fmj ammo magnetic jacket or soft metal safe for steel targets

Posted On: 3/28/2021 By: Lonnie

A: Hello Lonnie! I've just confirmed that this round's bullet is indeed nonmagnetic. There is no steel in its jacket.
