Also, if it was a 9x18 (standard 9mm)
9x18 typo??

Standard 9mm (9mm Luger) is 9x19mm

9x18 is the Soviet Makarov round and has other dimensional differences as well.

Walther did produce its own proprietary 9x18 round, different from the Makarov, with performance in between the 9mm Parabellum and the .380, called the 9x18 Ultra. Intended for police contracts, it was not a commercial success, and they are pretty scarce today.
