Ozkursan's manufacturing catalog is divided by intended use into three main product groups: Hunting & Shooting Ammunition, Small Arms Ammunition and Blank Ammunition. Each group is further split into calibre- or series-based sub-categories, reflected in the current product catalog on this site.
These three categories differ in both manufacturing logic and intended use; finding the right category is the first step toward selecting the right product.
Hunting & Shooting Ammunition (46 products)
The Hunting & Shooting Ammunition category is the catalog's largest product group, covering 12/16/20/36 gauge hunting and shooting cartridges. All shot, slug and rubber-projectile cartridges are grouped here, split into five main series:
- Ozkursan Series: covers Classic, Special, Shooting, Recreational, Eco, Rubber, Magnum, Dispersante and 16-gauge sub-lines — the most diversified branch of the catalog.
- Codex Series: Hunting Cartridge and Shooting Series sub-categories carrying the Codex brand, with shot loads in the 28-36 g range.
- COM Series: species-specific hunting cartridges (duck, quail, wood pigeon, rabbit) under the COM Special Series, including steel-shot options.
- CLK Series: Hunting Cartridge and Shooting Series sub-categories under the CLK brand.
- Slug Cartridges: 12/16/20/36 gauge slug and rubber-projectile products carrying a single core, intended for large game.
Small Arms Ammunition (14 products)
The Small Arms Ammunition category groups pistol and rifle cartridges into four calibre families. This category requires prior evaluation and is available only to authorised institutions and licensed commercial partners.
- 7.65 mm x 17 Pistol Cartridges: nickel/brass-plated steel case, 70-grain FMJ.
- 9 mm x 17 Pistol Cartridges: the .380 ACP equivalent, a 100-grain steel-case FMJ line.
- 9 mm x 19 Pistol Cartridges: the Luger/Parabellum family, in steel- and brass-cased variants with 115-124 grain FMJ and JHP bullets.
- .45 CAL Pistol Cartridges: 45 ACP calibre, 230 grain, in steel- and brass-case options.
Blank Ammunition (12 products)
The Blank Ammunition category groups sound/blank-firing products carrying no live projectile into three sub-groups, designed to produce sound and flash only.
- 8 mm Pistol Blank Cartridges: includes products such as CK822 and Ozkursan 3462.
- 9 mm Pistol Blank Cartridges: the Echo 7755, CK 9 7710, Lagant 5757, Codex 7701 and Ozkursan 5700/5701 family.
- 9 mm Rubber Bullet Cartridges: Ozkursan 3501 and 3505 rubber-projectile products.

Technical Differences Between Categories
The three categories operate on different projectile and case logic: Hunting & Shooting Ammunition carries shot or a slug, Small Arms Ammunition consists of metallic cartridges with FMJ/JHP bullets, and Blank Ammunition is manufactured with no projectile. For more on these differences, see Ammunition Types and Their Characteristics.
A Common Element: Boxer Primers
One technical element unites every product across all three categories: primer type. Every product family in the catalog uses a Boxer primer, covered in detail on the Boxer Primers page.
