The 7.92×24mm cartridge is a pistol cartridge designed in Belgium by Rik Van Bruaene of VBR-Belgium. The design objective was the development of a cartridge for use in Personal Defence Weapons (PDW), and for use in pistols, submachine guns and carbines. The technical specifications of the 7.92×24mm round are much closer to the 9×19 mm NATO pistol round than that of the 4.6×30 mm and 5.7×28 mm rounds more commonly used in PDWs. The 7.92×24mm is specially designed to fulfill a multicaliber role in the existing 9×19mm and .45 Auto frame platforms.
