Correction "GFL M38 9mm" is "Model 1938" for use in MAB38A submachine Gun. To distinguish cartridge from the standard Italian service cartridge, 9mm Corto, M34 (1934) which is a .380 Auto/9x17 Corto.
Nothing to do with "military", although the major users were the Italian Military ( and Africa Colonial Police).
Cartridge identical to 9mm Parabellum, in dimensions, but load and bullet different, as required by a heavy , long barreled Machine Carbine ( "Moschetto Automatico Beretta".).
Gun itself better in range and hitting power than any other of the WW II 9mm subguns, except maybe the Finnish SUOMI K31.
