i was graveling a driveway for a customer of mine today and he showed me a round of ammunition that was left on his pickup bumper last light by persons unknown, along with the entire truck being keyed, the round is one i havent seen before it was marked .30 par and the last letter was either a or o, cant make it out, its size leaves me wondering what kind of gun shoots this round, either a large frame pistol or a rifle, were both thinking he was the victim of mistaken identity, he is in his mid 70's and pretty easy going, and his truck a early '90's era ford, cream color, isnt all that unusual, but the round has us courious, anybody know anything about it?

It's the predecessor of the popular 9mm Parabellum. Used in some German automatic pistols, including the P-08 Parabellum (aka "Luger") and the Walther P-38. Maybe the vandals fancy themselves to be skinheads.

HANG A HUMAN SILOUETTE TARGET WITH THE CENTER BLOWN OUT AND A 12 GAUGE HULL IN THE WINDOW OF THE TRUCK! GIVE THEM A MESSAGE BACK!

That's too bad. Mistaken identity maybe? Live in a tough neighborhood? That kind of stuff hasn't happened out anywhere near me. Well, I take that back. A couple of years ago my nearest neighbor had his pickup broken into, actually two years in a row. Nothing like that at my place though. Everyone at my place shoots and shoots (practices) often. Not trying to send a signal, but not trying not to either.
Good luck, keep a low profile, they will be back. Maybe tonight.
