#5 four US made 7.65mm pistols,

Somebody want to translate rab-ese to english
What caliber is that? I know that 8MM is 5/16 inch or .312 thousands, but I never heard of a 7.65MM pistol (that works out to .30592 inch, or about 30 caliber, ain't no such animal)

#6 It's a Commie caliber 7.62x25. The round comes from a Mauser pistol. You seen the Mauser in movies about Soviets. It has the magazine in front of the trigger, not in the pistol grip. The Tokarev TT and cousins "borrowed" much from John Browning's pistol designs, so the confusion.
