I found 10rnds of 9x25mm mauser rounds but they are different from any 9 iron ive ever seen. I heard they are rare. Is this true? And what gun were they made for?

is nothing more than necked down 10mm brass that is loaded with a 9mm bullet.i am not aware of commercially manufactured ammo or guns but i know of a custom barrel for a 1911 frame and RCBS makes dies for reloading.

I believe the first C96 mausers were 9x25 mauser. A newer 9x25mm round is a necked down 10mm case with a 9mm bullet. Most guns that shoot this round are custom 1911's but you can also get a 9x25mm conversion barrel for a Glock 20. It is similar to a .357 sig, but with more behind it.
