German Astra 300 7.65...

Found this while I was walking a local gunshow over the weekend. I already had a really nice Nazi Astra 300 in 7.65 but this one was in even better shape so it came home with me. Here are some pics.

Sorry Sarge you're wrong. Only 300's in .380 are waffenamted. The 7.65's are ID'd by serial numbers ranges.

Strange, I'd swear that I have seen the 32s with WaA.
