Weren't you the one complaining about how small pocket pistols were?


Edit: the slide mass is necessary. It's a blowback design in a 9 mm caliber on the lower spectrum of the 9 Luger. Either that or extra stiff springs.

Just the FN 1900. I like the Astra & Savage 32ACP's I have.

Good looking pistol and I love that leather holster.

The pistol looks almost identical to my 1938 Tokarev TT33, a Fedor Tokarev copy of John Browning's original FN version.

Nah! Not just the FN 1900. You also wrote something about the Walther pp/ppk series, if I remember correctly.

Well, when I first held a Colt 1903 I was also surprised because it was so small. I guess Bogey had smallish hands.

Anyways, I ended up not buying that Colt not because of its size, but because it only looked good on the left side . Still waiting for the right one to come my way.

About the Savage. I also got one, it's from the Portuguese contract (with lanyard ring and loaded chamber indicator), it was refinished but I don't care. It's a backup (back back backup ) for my Lugers in our former service pistols shooting competition.

You don't need to do it! Just go after a Colt Pocket Model 1908 in .380 ACP which is essentially the same gun.

With a milder caliber.
