Anybody know of a source for 32ACP(7.65Browning) other than the usual commercial 50rd boxes for about $20+:confused: ? Hoping to find some fun plinker ammo. I know Remington UMC makes in the 250pk but have yet to locate any up here:( .
Just curious..
Thnx

Looks like I have stumbled onto the second biggest mystery known to man...;)
Just have to keep poking around..
Cheers

Yes. But if you are grandfathered for 12(6), you can buy and sell as many as you want, and shoot them like any other pistol.
Districorp has 7.65 for $14.50/50, but that's in Montreal.
 
.32

Try wholesale I know it is a bit pricey but there about the only business in town. Save you brass and reload with cast. I have it down to just a little over 2.00 to reload a box.
 
Try Lebaron's, they get it in from time to time. Although i haven't bought any in the last year and a half. IIRC about $14-15 a box.

"...yet to locate any up here..." You likely won't either. Given the lack of market due to the prohibition. It's not worth importing if it's going to sit on the shelf unsold. Most restricted only .32 calibre pistols are high end target pistols chambered in .32 S&W, not .32 ACP.
"....32 calibre rifles are unrestricted..." How many rifles in .32 ACP have you seen? Just curious.

Just one. It was built on a Winchester .22 WRFM action, with a Mosin barrel (.311 groove). Single shot. If I still had it I'd have grafted a mag housing from a cheap pistol on to it and had a repeater.

If I find another really cheap .22 mag action, I'd build another; but I'd use a .308" barrel, maybe an M1 carbine take-off.

Wasn't there also a replica of the AR15 that was available either in .22rf or .32 ACP?


Prosper: If I could find a barrel with a .251" groove diameter, I'd really think about it. A standard .22 action would work if you mod the firing pin (to centerfire) and maybe (depending on the actual action) open the extractor(s) slightly.

A pump rifle, like the Henry Arms, in .25 or .32 ACP would be a gas-gas-gas!

I have 2 chamber inserts - in .308 and 30-06 that allow me to fire .32 ACP in these rifles -for grouse hunting , indoor range work, or whatever.

Yeah, that'd be a fun project, and a great plinker
