Default Bauer .25 Auto

I was digging around in some old parts today and found a sack with most of a Bauer .25 in it .It needs a magazine and springs but I would like to know if anyone knows if it is worth buying the parts and putting the gun back together?

Yep, it is. These are a copy of the Browning "Baby". Fine little pistols. Bauers usually sell for around $300 in my area.

I had one. It worked. There was nothing wrong with it. But next to an Astra, it looked and sounded like it needed about a thousand years of use and polishing. Again, it WAS functional. But people who like old S&W revolvers would find a friend in the Astra. No comparison.

I had one and liked it except for caliber. I've seen them sell for 3-400 dollars here in recent years. I think it may be worthwhile for you to get it back together again.

Precision Small Arms should have the parts you need.
