That is a wonderful price for Fiocchi 30 Luger ammo. I notice that the boxes in the photo are of JSP bullets. Every Luger is different, but my Lugers do not like this bullet, and they become jam-a-matics. Others on this forum state no problems with this ammo. I used to purchase Fiocchi 30 Luger ammo from Abel's Shooting there in Texas. Thanks for posting. All ammo is slowly but surely starting to show up on the shelves these days. Now, if pistol powder would do the same thing.

I wonder why it was on clearance?

Ed, I was wondering the same thing. I had checked this store a cpl months ago and they didn't have any. Seems like a short amount of time to receive inventory and then put it on clearance.

Yep,I have 1 of 1500 that was imported to this country.I believe it was 1989 and i think it was Davidson's that was selling them. I remember seeing them in Shotgun News. They were selling them for $269 or so. I will try to get some pics up tomorrow,

Pics as requested, note the 7.65mmP marked magazine and barrel. This one is dated 1981(PZ). There were several variations of these, 2 different slide addresses and sights(which I have not seen).

Very cool!

I have been looking for a 7.65 Parabellum P-38 (I believe Manurhin made some), now I'll have to add a Hi-Power to my bucket list...
