Ammo type for XD 9

does the XD 9 fire this type of 9mm ammo? Not sure what 9x18 stands for.

9x18 Makarov Brown Bear 94gr. FMJ Ammo

No.

You need 9mm Luger also know as 9x19 parabellum. It will say that on the right side of the gun.

9x18 Makarov is a larger diameter and shorter case.

Thanks dude. I was wondering about the types of 9mm. Plenty of the Mak to be had so I was almost positive it wasn't the right kind.
