Why is .32 acp so alluring despite being so shit?
>low pressure
>low case capacity
>semi rimmed
>somewhat expensive ammo

>>63842252 (OP)
it has soul

>>63842252 (OP)
it's actually the bottom end of "good enough" penetration and energy with soft recoil to boot but 9mm is cheaper so it gets all the attention.

>0.32 inch average compact penis

the guns that shoot it are more pleasant to shoot in 32 than 380

>semi rimmed
This is its main disadvantage, drawback in a magazine fed semiauto
30 Super Carry blows it tfo

>>63842350
I wish there were more guns, i dont want to get the ashidity arms pd10 but if they made a double stack version which rob dinkus keeps teasing i would grab one in a heartbeat. For now the shield plus will have to do

>>63842252 (OP)
because once you realize that shot placement trumps bullet diameter, you stop caring about what cartridge you're using and focus more on what you can shoot well

my mother is old and can't comfortably rack the slide even on my Beretta 92, but she can load and shoot a Beretta Tomcat very well

>>63842379
yea I'm not sure what they were thinking with 30 SC (only S&W bothered to produce a pistol)
It needed to have at least three of the big name handgun manufacturers adopt the chambering, now it's just turning into a dodo caliber

lol semi rimmed average contact penis

its god's mouse round

All you need is acp
>.45
>.380
>.32
>.25
Pick .45 and one of the others and you're set for life.

>not .25ACP
7k+ in 28 days

More powerful and reliable than .22LR while still fitting in an itty bitty pocket gun.

>>63842281
9mm is consistently a stronger performer.

God is that true.
I have a Beretta 1935 in 32, it's sooooo much fucking more fun to shoot than the m1934 in 380.

>>63842252 (OP)
Doesnt need a locked action. Simple blowback = cheap guns

>>63842252 (OP)
Cheap skorpion parts kits and barrels and $60 injection molded receivers

>9MM IS DA STRONGEST ROUND IN DA WURL! IT BEAT 32 GUYS LOOK!
Do you have to shit up every thread with your incessant autism?

I saw this in every thread but I'd really like

>>63847481
I wish Ruger made their LCP pocket pistols in .25 and .32, they are the exact right size for the cartridge and you could fit a decent amount in there.

>>63847481
So you want a .32 PPK but double stack and half an inch shorter length, me too

>>63847875
Yes. That is what I wish

>Why is .32 acp so alluring
Shoot a vz61 with a giggle switch and no rate reducer and you'll see why.

>>63847875
If .32 was rimless, I could have a pistol this size and shape but which could easily hold at least 15rds of that.

>>63842418
I'm still mad about it. It makes .32acp and .380 obsolete. Hell, it kind of competes with 9mm if you have to worry about females gripping a handgun properly.

>>63850634
It doesnt make .32 acp or .380 obsolete because the fuckhuge pressure it runs at makes it basically impossible to run in the giga micros that you can shove .32 and .380 into, so it competes with 9mm and .40 s&w frame-wise

>>63850653
Idea, use .30SC brass, but simply load it to a lighter level (somewhere between .30SC and .32ACP), then simply call it .320 Special Auto or something.
Maybe cut 1mm off of the case if you want to be sure about liability and what not.
