someone is "carrying" when they have a weapon, in most cases a gun, on their person. it is normaly only applied to a weapon that has been concealed.
unlike packing heat, strapped up and simmilar phrases, carrying is commonly used by gun users who may not use the more "street" terms.

one of the alternative names for 9x19mm Parabellum used by numerous pistols, sub machine guns and pistol-calibre carbines. the origional was developed by the germans for the 9mm luger pistol, hence the americans also knowing the round as 9x19mm luger. it's all the same thing.
