Two Stories of Homemade Weapons

Impro Guns has the info, as usual. First from Peru: Mini Uzi (Weed)

Agents of the National Police dismantled a criminal gang allegedly dedicated to the artisanal manufacture of firearms , in the Lima district of Villa El Salvador ( VES ).

Click thru for the photo. It is hard to be sure, but it appears to be in 9mm. The quote is actually from whatever source Impro Guns found for the story.

Next, from Brazil: Homemade 9mm Pistol

A 36-year-old man was arrested this Tuesday (6), in Carmo do Cajuru, for illegal possession of a homemade .9mm caliber pistol. According to the PM, the crime took place on Rua Guilherme Nunes, in the city center.

Again the quote is from whatever source Impro Guns used for the link. It appears that all over the world, journalists know next to nothing about firearms. While there might be a gun somewhere chambered in 0.9mm, firearms chambered in 9mm are much more common. The photo shows the magazine, which certainly seems be 9mm.
