Astra A75

[Browns Fan]

I saw one of these in .45 for sale for $329. Are they any good? It looks like a solid gun. Is that a good price?

Had one in the 80's, not a bad shooter, The mag had a crack at the eed lip area..sold it. $329 might be a little high....

I have an A75 in 9mm. It is a decent gun and fits my hand extraordinarily well. However, the machining on the slide is rough, the trigger is pretty mediocre, and obviously parts are hard to come by (including magazines). Fjestad lists the A75 in .45 at $350 in excellent condition.

Ok till need parts or mags them will require looking a bit.

I had one in .40 S&W.

Like Vonderek said, they feel really good in the hand. Mine had a great trigger pull and shot very well; I got rid of it because it was all steel and too heavy for CC.

Sold guns, built like a Sig. Mine is an A75L
No weak areas, they run forever. I don't like the slick grips.
It's the size of a P11, but it's DA/SA. Mine has a decent trigger in either mode.
OE NOS mags are plentiful, including extended 10-rounders.
That price is at the high end of normal. I would not sell mine for that.
But if I ran across an A75 at $329, I'd probably buy it.

Had one in .40 and it was stone reliable and a solid performer. Sold it because I'm stupid.
