Any .32 fans? 1935 Beretta

Thanks for sharing OP. Is that a police or military-issued variant?

I have one sort of like yours, but in .380. Traded for it years ago.

Only have a Colt in .32 ACP. Really like it, however. Definitely will keep an eye out in the future, should another one turn up for sale.

I'm down to one, a Colt Model M from 1917 (shown with its 1926 cousin in 380).

And I just sold my 1917 Savage on 32 acp last month on the forum here.

They're all fun shooters imo and they are/were pretty darn accurate too.

I have a few. Here are some pictures, randomly assembled as I find them in my photo library.

It is rare to find an FN 10/22 used by the "Bahnpolizei" in such great condition. I had the FN125, the post 1968 GCA version with the adjustable sights, that I gave t my son. It had great practical accuracy with those beer can sights.

I have a Walther PP in immaculate condition and keep that one in the safe, I have other .32 PPs that are for range use but I have the PP, HK4, Beretta 71, 76 and a Beretta 87 in .22 l.r. that I shoot more often than the .32s. I had over thousand rounds of .32 ACP before the onset of the ammo crisis, little enough is left now.

 
First handgun I shot was in .32 acp (7.65 Browning) and I think it still has a place. I think the Bodyguard, as well as the LCP, in .32 acp would have a market, if ammo was being produced - and I don't think that is likely to happen anytime soon with the current ammo shortages. . I think FMJ loads are best for the .32 acp (maybe with the Seecamp being an exception). It is not that long ago that it was still a law enforcement caliber in many European countries.
