?...... boolits! I had a Walther a loong time ago. When I was lucky to get someone to buy ammo for me. I was like, 16 or 17. Had a WW II holster with some kraut,s name written in it.

A hit with a 32 is better than 6 misses with a 44!

And better than a sharp stick.

One of the writers of yesteryear use to say "I will take a 25 acp in the eye than a 44 to the thumb."

Do not rightly remember who though.....

Without the shoulder stock, like you say, might as well have a standard style auto pistol. With a shoulder stock, I could see the advantage.

I bought a few boxes of the buffalo bore. They feed and eject perfectly.

The guy complains about a tiny wound channel. That's the rationale for the round to start with, i.e., no deformation for maximum penetration. I guess he didn't get that.

32's are not known for large wound channels, he apparently missed that point as well.
