I've got two Gen1 P32's and Wifey has the Gen2 P32 that was once mine. All have worked without any problems that I can attribute to the pistol, itself, or the mags. Only malfunctions experienced have been due to ammo (some JHP's and "Extreme Cavitator" rounds that have a shorter overall length that lead to rimlock issues) or holding the pistol in such a way that accidentally allows one's thumb to drag upon the slide - it IS an itty-bitty lil' gun, after all.
I still carry mine at the gym, even though it's not on the department's approved list, because I haven't yet found any sort of holster for my Shield or Hellcat that will conceal properly, comfortably, and securely while I'm doing gym stuffs. I just poke the ol' hard-chromed P32 into a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster, drop it in a front pocket in my shorts with a 10-round spare mag in my back pocket, and I'm good to go.
FWIW, I only carry either Fiocchi FMJ or Sellier & Bellot (S&B) FMJ as my carry ammo in .32 ACP - essentially, my practice ammo is my defensive ammo. Haven't found anything else that will function reliably AND consistently penetrate adequately enough to reach vitals. (Remember, kiddies, the expansion doesn't matter if it never reaches the important stuff.) I mean, my P32's will gobble up just about every FMJ round I've tried in them, but Fiocchi and S&B load theirs a bit hotter, so it works more gooderer at making deep little holes.
