pawn shop find, maybe
« on: August 15, 2012, 10:55:39 AM »
I like to haunt the gun counters of local pawn shops from time to time.  Yesterday I saw a pair of small auto pistols removable magazine fit into the hand grip area, bottom release, chambered for 7.62 Mauser.  profile resembled the broomhandle mausers I've read about and seen pictures of, except for where the magazine attaches, and these are pocket sized.


Any thoughts on what they are, and possible values?

Are you sure you got the caliber right.  It should be 7.65, as in 32 acp, not 7.62x25mm or 30 Mauser.
