Research notes
The 9mm MJR (9mm Major) dates from around 1991 and was designed by Horst Grillmayer, who also developed the 9x25 SAG (Super Auto Grillmayer). It is based on the 40 S&W case necked down. As can be seen from the specimens below, some of the original testing was done in South Africa, the same as with the 9x25 SAG before production was moved to MFS in Hungary.
