.32 ACP / 7.65

>>35087590

And it will. The 7.65 (along with the 6.25) were mostly a European thing early on, and in a way still are. I collect these guns too and there are literally hundreds of different designs out there.

Keep in mind that during Weimar due to the Treaty of Versailles, certain firearms manufacturing were disallowed, so a lot of the cottage companies struggling for money started making .25 and .32 pistols. Here's an interesting one where safety is labeled 'German' and fire is labeled 'Polish'

Too high for what it is, but you'll come across these types of oddballs if you collect these things long enough.

>>35087627
Interesting. The slide and frame look distinctly Ortgies especially from the rear.

I'm just about done working on my Mauser 1914. The sights were favoring to the the right, so I'm getting them realigned. Aside from that, it shoots well because of the new springs. I'll post pics when I have the chance if this thread is still up.

>>35087864
I was given the Ortgies and that's what started me on these. Barrel had a serious bulge in it. Of course the story was someone gave it to grandpa to hide because it was used to kill someone yada yada. The bulge looked like it could be from a contact shot who knows. Anyway I got a new barrel. Fitting it was a chore but it worked and I'm hooked.

>>35087923
And yes, I spent an afternoon on my hands and knees looking for the striker spring follower when I took it apart the first time. Work shop needed swept anyway...

>Here's an interesting one where safety is labeled 'German' and fire is labeled 'Polish'
Yeah, I'm going to say it's some fake.

>>35088440

No, it's most likely a cottage build during the Weimar Republic. Typical Ruby design, which were copied by smaller German gun manufacturers looking for revenue in cash strapped Weimar.

Though this was probably a one-off by a gunmaker that had something against Poles, or could have been made in the Danzig area prior to WW2, etc. It doesn't have the appearances of a fake, and honestly your counterfeiters do not fake shit like this because it's not valuable. Not like stamping a Swazi on a Browning 1910 or Mauser or something.

>>35088837
>and honestly your counterfeiters do not fake shit like this because it's not valuable.
No, they counterfeit anything that will make them an extra buck. You're having the exact same response that the faker wants you to have. You made up a story.

First .32 i got was a pretty beat up 1903

After shooting for the first time i finally understood why steel frame .32s were so popular

since then i've acquired a post war Spanish ruby and Walther PPK with minor holster wear from 1938.

>>35087590
I noticed that most of these .32 Autos have the barrel protruding from the slide. It's almost as if they are begging for a suppressor.

Friend of mine has a Kommer Model 4. Like pic related, only his is substantially nicer. Just a little holster wear.

He traded a DSM-34 for it, and the guy gave him a couple hundred bucks store credit for his antique/surplus store. He got the DSM-34 for $170 at an auction we were at.

But by the same token, .32 auto has probably killed more cheaters, cuckers, swindlers and thiefs than any other caliber.

I should have guessed, and it's times like these I'm glad you're still around. I've got a major boner for Pederson and as time goes by I lose more and more interest in modern guns while gaining for guns from before the tech hit that plateau.

Similarities to the FN1910 in style and footprint aside, how do you like the 51 compared to the rest of your .32s

>>35092688
The internet says you're right, but I guess it's fair to say that .32s did a hell of a lot of work in amassing those casualties.

The 51 is by far the most compact of the .32's and has the softest recoil. The close second is the Savage 1907. The sights are minuscule, but still larger than the FN 1910's which are virtually non-existent. The takedown is a bit complex due to the movable breechblock. There is not a single screw in the entire pistol, the grips are actually retained by the grip safety pin - they slide downward once it is removed.

Here's a photo with my Colt 1903 to demonstrate how slim the Remington is by comparison.

>>35089714

Oh wow, I never realized how trim they actually are and I sure as hell didn't know the takedown was all pins. Shame Pederson hadnt come along a bit sooner. Would have been nice to see how the Model 52 really played out. The 51s don't seem to pop up on auctions often enough to get ballpark price but I would like to pick one up eventually. If you have an idea what a fair condition .380 or .32 go for I would appreciate any advice.

All I have to offer is Cylinder and Slide's 1903 inspired 1911

Guys, I need to find a .32 for my mother.
A reliable one.
Her makarov is great, but she was sick for a long while and lost damn near all her arm strength, and .32 has demonstrated itself to be the best possible cartridge for her.
I already have some preferences, but what would you guys recommend?

>>35093235
Shot placement is king I guess.

>>35093235
Shot placement is king at the ranges self defense normally requires.

.32 is easy as fuck to handle, and dumping all 7-8-9 rounds into someone's skull is a simple matter in theory.
It's a nice point and click cartridge, even for people who are shit with guns as >>35093528 demonstrated.

I'm also looking into a .32 for both me and a relative though, so I might be a little biased.

>>35087590
They all look nice, but any caliber smaller than 9x19 is only good for executing starving soviet peasants

The FN 1910 and 1910/22 grip safeties are nowhere nearly as stiff as the FN 1903/Husqvarna 1907. That one requires a conscious effort to disengage and will pinch the web of your hand if you let your grip relax while shooting..
