One 7.92 x 33 kurz round far left, next to it, a 7.62 x 39mm API, next a special 7.62 x 45mm grenade launching blank cartridge.
On the right side, three 9 x 39mm rounds, two of which are AP, and one probably sub-sonic ball round, on the far right.

. I should try the next one sober.The 9x39 ID's are correct. Note that of the two AP round that one has a copper washed steel case while the other is lacquared steel. The CWS cased round is earlier. The AP round is the SP-6. The ball loading is the SP-5.
Here are examples of fired projectiles:
The round second from the left is a 7.62 x 39, but the black o/green tip is the identification is for the sub-sonic load. The projectile is longer and heavier than a standard ball load. There is a hardened steel penetrator in front of a lead core.
Hint for the remaining rounds: both are captive piston types.
