For an overview of 9mm ammunition types in the Fallout series of games, see 9mm. |
“A collection of ancient 9x19mm rounds. Heavy grease to preserve them from the environment. Standard bullets.”
9mm is a type of ammunition in Fallout and Fallout 2.
Background
Main article: 9mm
Before the Great War, 9mm was the preferred type of ammunition for small weapons in the American Southwest, while the military and the eastern and western seaboards tended to favor the more powerful 10mm ammunition. 9mm is also lightweight and easy to find.[1] One downside to 9mm was its infamous inferior lethality and has kept that reputation even after the Great War.[2]
Characteristics
9mm ball is one of the rarest ammunition types in Fallout and Fallout 2. Not to be confused with the standard 9mm rounds, which are an inferior alternative which do not appear in Fallout.
Variants
There are two variants of 9mm ammunition:
- 9mm ball (Ammunition. Caliber: 9mm, ball.)
- 9mm (Ammunition. Caliber: 9mm.) - Fallout 2 only variant.

- ↑ Wanderer's Guide Book, pg. 58: "Before the Great War, 9mm was the preferred type of ammunition for small weapons in the American Southwest, while the military and the Eastern and Western Seaboards tended to favor the more powerful 10mm ammunition. 9mm ammunition is lightweight and widely available, but has a reputation for being insufficiently deadly."
- ↑ The Courier: "It takes more than a couple bullets in the head to stop me."
Benny: "Yeah, hello... Well, serves me right for using a 9mm."
