Disappointed with the 32 acp

[Titanium_Frost]

I have an old Colt pocket .32 I really like.

Post pics of yours! I love the .32 round. Penetrated through a water jug and almost as deep as my nonexpanding Winchester PDX1 45s.

Here is a pic of my Colt 1903

Fine looking COLT, It's a classic, My FN 1910 is nickle & has 5 mags with FN stamp on the mag

Thanks! That sounds sweet, post pics when you get a chance, hey we can start a "Show us your .32" thread.

Maybe I'll need some buffalo bore ammo, cause the FMJ I was shooting disappointed me. I want a caliber that will penetrate at least 5 inches

Here are some penetration tests w/various .32 rounds. All out of Kel-tec, so the longer barrel on you FN 1910 will produce additional fps. Buffalo Bore wasn't in the test list.

If you're using US .32 plinking ammo, like WWB, it's not loaded as hot as the European brands like Fiocchi or S&B. For carry purposes get a couple of boxes of Buffalo Bore or whatever jhp's from the above test and try em out in your pistol for function and point of aim/impact.

THANK YOU, I'm using the weak azz usa ammo I'll buy some S & B ammo & see if i'll penetrate better

I think the problem was that I was like 40 feet away I expected the 32 acp to enter the side of the computer

Note to self, if attacked by transformers or other technology, use bigger caliber than .32 acp.

I expected the 32 ACP to enter the computer My carry gun is a CZ 75 9MM, I'm sure that would have enter the computer

Fixed the link for you, mine was late 1920. Its awesome to have something going on 100 years old that still works great. Eats ammo better and more accurately than my wife's Kel Tec.

I have a MARLIN 783 22 MAG, but the box of 50 rounds of ammo is $13.95 It's not cheap to shoot the 22 MAG. It's cheaper to shoot 9MM

Wal Mart, has .22 Mag., for $7.77 a box, of 50 .....

Gen. Patton carried a colt .32 sometimes. It's better than finger nails. One of the
big magazines did an article on the .32 right after the Seecamp pocket .32 came out.
They rated the silvertip very close to .38 round nose. I do carry a .32 when I'm dressed up. I figure if I have to use it it's two in the bread-basket and one in the head.
[note to self,if the perp's carrying a lap-top, shoot around it]

My old Colt .32 is very smooth and accurate, doesnt seem to lack a punch for a small caliber.

Wally world also sells Winchester Dynapoint 22 mag for $8 /50 rounds.

That ammo is complete crap. I would not shoot it if someone paid me to.
