In J.B. Woods book, Troubleshooting Your Handgun, he wrote about the French Model 1935-A pistol. In the last paragraph of the article, he mentions that if the pistol is not a collectors piece, then it could be converted to use .32 ACP ammo. And because the locking system used is fairly strong, warmer than usual handloads could be run through it without any problems. I'm not sure what all was required to get it to work properly, but I think he made an insert to allow the shorter .32ACP case to fit in the 7.65mm. Long chamber.
