I'm trying to get an idea of the various bottle neck (pistol) rounds that where commercially available.

So far I have;
Czech 7.62x25
Mauser 7.63
357sig

what are the others ....?

I don't think 5.56 NATO is classified as a "pistol" cartridge at least from the gun up.

Noway,

If I interpreted your question correctly, you were asking for bottle neck pistol cartridges. Being that the case the Carbon 15 Pistol is considered by ATF a HANDGUN and not a LONGGUN and since it uses a bottle neck cartridge this firearm cartridge combination fits your original criteria.

BTW, I didn’t include the Thompson Contender which supports a plethora of other bottle neck cartridges simply because it a single shot and not a semi auto firearm like a Glock or the Carbon 15 Pistol.

30 Luger
8mm Nambu
22 Rem Jet
256 Win Mag
5mm Clement
6.5mm Bergmann
30 Borchardt
and a couple of others, depending on how you want to define "handgun".

How about the 9x25 Dillon? Isn't that one like a .357 Sig magnum?

9x25 dillon ooooh yes I frogot.


But the original intent of this post was looking for commercial mfg guns calibers that have been chambered for bottleneck style.Kinda like COTS ( commercial off the shelf )

225boz (which I think is really 224boz),9x25,400 corbon, 440corbon, & 40super don't count ( imho ). These calibers where built for custom guns, in alimited fashion, with specific purposes, with normally custom 3rd party barrels. All are great but not something I would call "commercial" by any means.

Now for the second part; out of the calibers listed can somebody name mfg ( not barrel company ) that have produce guns in these calibers?

(You can drop off the 357sig since it is readily new and most mfg seems to have gun in this caliber)Once again just commercially available guns produce in these commercially available calibers. NO exotic, no special applications,etc..........

I could've sworn they made a desert eagle in .440 corbon. That was a few years ago i think, so it might not be in production.

You're missing the 7.62 Tokarev.

Let's not forget the old timers like the .38-40, .44-40, and .32-20. The handguns were made by Colt in single action and double action, and made currently (off and on) by Ruger, and whole bunch of companies that make Colt look alikes.
