I believe that Styer stuff will work in the 9mm Largo 9x21 guns. But not in a 9x19 9mm Luger
Hey all, Just got asked this at my LGS the other day. They have 2 boxes of German made 9mm Steyr ammo. Anyone help me out with knowledge on this? please?
Thanks.

I believe that this ammunition was made to be used in Austria's WW2-era, military-issue sidearm, the 9mm Steyr Hahn M1911 pistol. This SA semi-auto pistol loads via stripper clips into a fixed magazine in the pistol's grip. Its locked breech depends upon a rotating barrel. Its safety lever is in a particularly awkward location.
Thanks steve, DJ. didnt know about that pistol steve. I will have to do some research and reading to report back to the lovely lady who owns the store.
