[attachimg=1]I found two new 9 mm PAK cartridges but I can't find the factory who produces them. Does anyone know who produces these cartridges??
Thanks Hans

I believe V. Sport is Victory Sport, made by Turac: http://www.turac.com.tr/html/eng/urunler_eng.html (http://www.turac.com.tr/html/eng/urunler_eng.html)

I know what PAK means on a cartridge, but what does the acronym stand for?

Parabellum Knall is what I've read in some places. Other places I've read said it stands for Pistole Automatische Knall, and yet others claim it is Pistole Automatik Knall. Is that what you were asking about?

As far as RIVO is concerned, I'm not sure and I can't find anything on it. It seems the biggest manufacturer of blanks is RWS/Umarex, Walther, and Fiocchi. Maybe someone else has heard of this headstamp.

Pak means: Pistole Automatik Knall. You can also find P.A. on a blank h/s than it means, Pistole Automatik.
I am interested in the factories who produces them. We find these days a lot of new gas alarm (Blanks)headstamps.
