Are you talking an F. Dusek Duo?
I picked one up at the last Salt Lake City gun show.
Any brand of hardball 25 auto will do. These are well made and reliable guns.
However, watch out about absent mindedly forcing the slide home (chambering a round) with the safety on. I didn't break mine, but almost.
Hollow points are silly for a 25. There's not enough velocity or energy to expand and they jam a lot in guns not designed for them. Also, hardball penetration is minimal as it is; if a hollowpoint actually did expand you'd get about a half inch of penetration... little more than a nasty rash, and an even nastier assailant.
I got my duo for $150. How'd you do?
