Here is the information from the image presented in a structured format:

World War II Era Weapons

MG 34 (1934): A general-purpose machine gun designed by Heinrich Vollmer while working for Ma**er Industries.

StG 44 (1944): Widely considered the first successful assault rifle, it was developed during WWII by Hugo Schmeisser.

MG 42 (1942): Designed by Werner Gruner, this machine gun was a more cost-effective and faster-firing successor to the MG 34.

FG 42 (1942): A selective-fire battle rifle/automatic rifle designed by Louis Stange.

Erma EMP (1932): A submachine gun developed by Heinrich Vollmer.

MP 28 (1928): A submachine gun designed by Hugo Schmeisser, an improvement on his earlier MP18 design.

The image displays four common 9mm pistol cartridges, arranged by case length: the 9x17mm (.380 ACP), the 9x18mm Makarov, the 9x19mm Parabellum, and the 9x23mm Largo.

Key Differences

9x17mm (.380 ACP): This is the shortest and least powerful of the group, often used in compact pistols for self-defense due to its low recoil.

9x18mm Makarov: This cartridge is between the .380 ACP and the 9x19mm in power. It is notable for having a slightly larger bullet diameter (9.27 mm or 0.365 in) compared to the others (approx. 9.01 mm or 0.355 in), making it incompatible with fi****ms chambered for other 9mm rounds. It was the standard military pistol cartridge of the Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc nations.

9x19mm Parabellum (9mm Luger): This is the most widely used military and police pistol cartridge globally, including by NATO forces and the U.S. Armed Forces. It is significantly more powerful than both the .380 ACP and the 9mm Makarov.

9x23mm Largo: Also known as 9mm Bergmann-Bayard, this round is longer and more powerful than the 9x19mm, though it saw less widespread use.
