Tale of the tape?

Exactly - and for many years, the .380, aka 9mm Corto (among other names) was the standard LEO cartridge in Europe

Well ... there are a few differences between then and now.

I think the other oart if what i was pondering was i prefer my beretta 92s or my canik but she cant run either of those. So if we can find one gun that we can both run, i can go back to only leaving one out of the safe. Or buy two and having 4 mags stashed. Im not giving up on my 9mms. But it would be better to both be able to run whats available. We can both run the 32 but thats less than id like for two leggeds.

One of the first firearms I recommend to my wife was a Walther PPK in 380. She didn't like it, too heavy, too wide etc. She ended up buying a Bersa Thunder, which is an almost direct copy of the Walther.

Had to chuckle at that. The Bersa Thunder is my CC.
Walther is made in Germany. After WWII a lot of Germans seemed to emigrate to South America, Argentina, particularly if my history courses were right. The Bersa looks a LOT like a PPK. The Bersa is made in Argentina. Hmmmmmmm.....

I was born in 1952 and judging by the chart seems 5-8ish for that year. I was nowhere near that big when I was born!

Mistake number 1

Let momma pick out HER gun after she has shot a nice variety.

......Or she will take one of yours that she likes and call it her’s

Which is what my wife did with my CZ75D
