The 9mm Browning Long, also known as 9×20mmSR, is a historical pistol cartridge developed in the early 20th century for military semi-automatic pistols.

Development and history of the cartridge:

The cartridge was designed in 1903 by the famous firearms designer John Moses Browning for the Belgian manufacturer Fabrique Nationale (FN). It was developed specifically for the FN Model 1903 pistol, which used a simple blowback operating system.

The cartridge was adopted by several European countries including Belgium, Sweden, the Netherlands, France and Estonia. In Sweden it was used in the Husqvarna m/1907 service pistol, a licensed version of the FN Model 1903.

Although similar in caliber to the more widely known 9×19mm Parabellum, the 9mm Browning Long uses a longer semi-rimmed case and headspaces on the rim. This design allowed it to function reliably in pistols using a simple blowback mechanism without requiring a more complex locked-breech system.

During the first half of the 20th century the cartridge was produced in several countries including Belgium, France, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States. During World War I it was also manufactured in Germany for the Ottoman Empire.

Today the 9mm Browning Long is considered a historical and largely obsolete cartridge, gradually replaced by more modern pistol calibers. Nevertheless, it remains an interesting part of the early history of semi-automatic pistols.
