[QUOTE="ltdavel, post: 776254, member: 7853"] In the "old days" - 1970's - a lot of police officers who couldn't afford a Walther PPK bought a Constable as a hide out gun because they were relatively small for the time and were considered to be quite reliable. 40 years ago the PPK was thought of as the only decent .380 or .32 auto on the market and Astra intended to get some of that business. I understand that the Astras were pretty decent little pistols. They were designed back in the days when most people loaded ball ammunition so I'd make sure that I tried the gun with modern hollow points. I've seen magazines for sale. As far as other stuff I really don't know. [/QUOTE]
