What is the difference between 9mm beretta ammo and regular 9mm ammo?
There is no such thing as a "9mm Beretta" cartridge. Beretta firearms were manufactured in 9x19mm (also known as 9mm Parabellum or 9mm Luger), 9x17 (also known as the .380 ACP), and some models are made in 9x21 IMI for countries which prohibit civilians from owning firearms chambered in military calibres. The cartridge appropriate for your Beretta 9mm should be marked on the frame and slide.
