My new "ugly" gun (update)
Astra 1921(400). That is about as ugly as they come. But I already had ammo for it and I can't have ammo and nothing to shoot it in. Paid $150 out the door last week and today I saw one for $300 in worse condition. I hope it shoots better than it looks.[8D]

Shot it a few times today and was impressed. Went bang every time, no jams and at twenty yards I was making a pop can dance. Even with that grip angle it still points well for me. For being a straight blowback the recoil was not that noticable.

Looks like a straight blow-back operation? 0 -
Actually, that's one I've always wanted to get - just never have gotten around to it - haven't even shot one but would like to hear how it shoots. I'm kinda partial to pre-war European handguns.
