need info on a handgun
My grandfather has a handgun that I'm trying to find info on. It's and old gun at least 80 years old. It's a 32 cal handgun and is an automatic. On the grip the leters C and B are scribed intertwing and the saftey is on the the back side of the grip. Gun shows made in spain on one side and on the other has the word Buffalo. Can anyone give me a manufactor or any other info.

My references show that your pistol was probably made by "Gabilondo Y Cia" under contract to a company by the name of "Armeria Beristain Y Cia" who was a wholesaler/jobber who sold these pistols all over the world.
"Bufalo" was the trade name used on these pistols, and the "C B" monogram was used on the grips.
They date from the early 1920's and their is little collectors interest and/or value in them.
Since your pistol was marked with the country of origin "Spain" it was probably produced for commercial sale in the U. S. during that same time frame.0
