I thought the reason of the use of the 7,62x25 is simply because it was a nationaly made version of the round fired in the C96, that, both the White and Red armies, were using in large number ?

A comment made by a doctor treating an attempted armed bank robber who was unfortunate to be shot by a passing ARV team in a local town some years ago was that if the villain had been wearing a thick duffle coat it would have been unlikely that the round that hit him would have passed through the garment.WelshShooter wrote:Ah, so the 7,62x25 was designed to remove the Finn?snayperskaya wrote: That is indeed correct.It was designed to better penetrate heavy winter clothing after it was found that the 7.62x38r Nagant revolver round could lack sufficient penetration against heavy quilted winter jackets.
Who would have thought that thick winter clothing would stop a bullet completely, I wonder what denim would do...
At the time the police were using a particularly light 9mm bullet loaded by Winchester. They up-gunned shortly after the event.
