Small Round, Big History
The 9x19mm Parabellum – the 9mm Luger – was designed by Georg Luger at the start of the twentieth century and is now the most widely used pistol round in the world. The British forces carry it today in the Glock 17, issued as the L131A1.
In the UK it is also a familiar sight at gallery rifle and pistol-calibre carbine clubs, where the 9mm is one of the most popular choices.
See it up close in our 9mm bullet keyring video.
Ring or Swivel Pin?
- 25mm split ring – simple and secure on any keyring
- Swivel pin – fitted through the primer pocket, so the round turns freely on your keys
How It Is Made
Each keyring starts as a once-fired 9mm brass case. It is cleaned and polished, resized to full length and fitted with a real seated bullet. Headstamps vary depending on the batch, so yours may carry a different maker’s mark from the photos.
Other pistol rounds: the .357 Magnum and .45 ACP keyrings. Making something yourself? Our 9mm casings for crafts come in packs of 20, and our 9mm bullet push pins use the same round.
