I am real partial to the .32 ACP.
With the Winchester  silvertip it actually has a pretty good record.
don't have to worry about over penetration.
And it is an inherently  accurate round.
Remember also that the .32 and the .380 are 2 of the most popular
selling rounds right now. Small caliber pocket autos are quite a trend now.
Many folks will probably disagree but I am sure not a one of them
would stand their ground against one being fired at them.

   SS, I totally agree....at close range these little pistols would definately ruin your day. I was impressed with the quality of this little pea shooter.
 
   I was told that these are pretty rare. It has the German eagles stamped on the frame/barrel, and the grips says 9 Schuss (9 shot). I got it as part of a very sweet trade. It came with original holster and 1 extra mag, a complete set.
