Whats your favorite C&R 32acp/7.65mm?

+1 FN 1922 very simple and reliable pistol.

There's something about the Colt 1903 that is really nice ... but the Walther PP has the deepest blue I've ever seen on old steel ... maybe they all looked the same when they were new, and the PP's I've shot were admittedly newer than the 1903's ... anyway it's a real toss up for me between those two classic designs.

Also, the CZ-50 isn't on the list and it's C&R ... although it is not in the same league as the 1903/Walther IMHO.

BTW, be VERY careful with 32s ... they will get together when you close your safe and MULTIPLY like rabbits!

Colt Pocket Hammerless, a.k.a. model 1903. I love mine.

*cough* J.P. Sauer and Sohn model 1913 *cough* Fun little shooter, not the BEST design, but an interesting one.

1. Mauser M1914/1934- I have one (not sure which). Archaic design, a little tricky to handle and disassemble, superb workmanship, mine is accurate.
2. CZ 27-my other 32ACP. Poor ergonomics, hammer and safety awkward to
manipulate, grip to frame angle poor. Poor sights. Robust contruction, accurate, reliable.

I pick the Mauser 1914.

Its a tough call between it and the 1903 Colt Hammerless pocket pistol since I have both but the little Mauser is more concealable

Mauser 1934 or the Bayard 1908, I have both but my favorite shooter is the Mauser.

I'd have to go with the Sauer 38H for best all-around design
and the Savage's for best design style.
The Mausers are certainly an honorable mention.

Smith & Wesson .32 auto, but I wouldn't dare shoot it.
