CINDERS, I almost bought a 7,92x94mm early WW2 anti-tank cartridge but was worried about the tear gas capsule inside the bullet. The 7,92x94mm was made from the early 1918 German 13,92mm anti-tank cartridge and used in a very large Mauser bolt action rifle (collectors still fire them with new made brass cases). The idea of the tear gas capsule was to disable the crew and force them to leave the tank or vehicle, in actual combat this idea did not work out.
Often the bullet went through the armor but the capsule was left outside ! The early weapon used to fire this 7,92x94mm cartridge was the single shot P.z.B. 38. Poland had a similar weapon too.

Attachment 66852Here is a photo of a five round box of the 7.92 X 94 mm ammo, and I believe one round of the 7.92 x 107 mm similar round.
