St Etinne Models 1935A & B, Model 1950

I have a 1935A. I fired it some years ago, but not recently. Small frame and light by 9mm Para standards, so "pleasant" to shoot. Interesting design now considered not powerful enough for military use. I suppose so, but the cartridge is still pretty zippy, even if the bullet isn't as heavy as the 9mm Para. I think at close range it would be a serious event, but nobody will ever think someone shot by this pistol will be knocked to the ground. Hammer assembly can be easily removed from the frame as a single unit. Safety is not meant to be easily "wiped" off, but effectively blocks the hammer from striking the firing pin.
 
Very neat gun, there is one new in the box at JOE SALTERS CANADIAN SALES for big bucks, but it must be the most decorated model ever built, you need to go see it! DALE Z!
 
Nolasco in France is selling a bunch of MAC50 in 9mm but deactivated only, it's a shame that these pistols cannot be imported here in Canada.

Take a look at Nolasco website in France, they have them by the case, all deactivated, very sad that they are not available to collector! :(

Here's an interesting add from the 60s or 70s not sure, they were once imported in the US by Golden State Arms.
