From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 11.3Ã36mmR (commonly referred to as "11mm Montenegrin") is a rimmed revolver and carbine cartridge developed by Austria-Hungary. Though originally designed for the Früwirth M1872 Repetiergewehr, it was also used with the Gasser M1870 revolver. The caliber was widespread throughout the Balkans due to the Montenegrin Pattern Revolvers.
