Anyone know anything about old ammo?

During our excavations last summer, I collected most of the old bullets we found, along with other assorted junk (a soda can, a medicine bottle, wrappers, etc). Supposedly area A of the site used to be a Jordanian bunker. I cleaned them today with salt and vinegar and I've managed to identify most of the bullet casings, but three are less obvious. Can anyone identify these? I'm looking to know which particular weapons would have used such bullets.

This one seems to read W. R. A. 9 M-M, although I'm not entirely sure there are periods between the letters WRA. I gather that there were a lot of types of bullets similarly stamped with WRA 9MM or W. R. A. 9MM or 9M-M, etc.

This one seems to have the letters IMI and two serial numbers. One looks like 68, the other maybe 762.

The third doesn't seem to have any identifiers, but it's small. Perhaps it's only the head of a bullet, but it doesn't fit in any of the ones that I have:

Size comparison (no. 1 on the right, no. 2 on the left and no. 3 in the middle):

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Be careful, they may be old but they still may be live.

Identification? Nope sorry
