9mm PARA White tip

[DerkJan]

Good afternoon,
In the book "SMALL ARMS AMMUNITION IDENTIFICATION CODES" written by E.L. Scranton I found the following information. ( see attachment )
I've never heard of it or read it before.
Does anyone have more information about this tip color.
Thanks in advance

You asked about white tip, so...

It was also used in (small arms but not only in 9P):

Tracer projectiles: Sweden (post 1941), Finland, France (pre 1958); UK (on .280; .283/30 and 7 mm ammo)
Armour piercing projectiels: Czechoslovakia
Grenade launcher cartridge: Argentina
Incendiary cart.: Argentina (old system)
Break-up canon projectile: Argentina
Ball with mild-steel core: China (pre 1967)
AP: Japan (on 7.7x56 ammo)
Short range tracer: UK

Thanks for the information.
I like to know if it's true, what Scranton writes about the German 9mm with a white bullet tip used in the Italian army.
Best regards Derk Jan

Hi Eugenio
I would be very interested, for my studies, if you could show a photo of the
"AP: Japan (on 7.7x56 ammo)"
with white tip
