First off I had no intention of getting rid of my P32. I've had it for several years with ZERO problems and it was an ideal choice when I didn't want to carry something larger. I had a spare mag, left hand pocket clip and a nice pocket holster for it and was used to it. However I made the mistake of letting a friends wife shoot it one Saturday and she loved it so much she tasked him with finding one. She shot the 3AT by the way but like the feel of the 32 better. So hubby strikes out and every time I see him he asks if I've seen any 32s. Apparently the dealers around here quit ordering the 32's because most people want the 380s.
Last week I notice that a dealer about 20 miles from me has 3ATs on sale for $239, so next time I see my friend I says "If you still want a 32 I'll sell you mine with spare mag and a box of ammo for $250." He's a friend but not THAT good of a friend. He jumps on the deal and his wife is beaming. Fine. So this afternoon I'm getting ready to make the drive to buy the 3AT for $239 and swing by a little Mom and Pop gun shop that is only a few miles away. Lo and behold they have a very slightly used 3AT with box, papers, left handed belt clip, spare mag with finger extensions on both mags and one of those Houge slip grip adapter on it. One mag I don't think was ever loaded into the pistol as there was no wear marks at all. Cash price was $245 out the door.
So now I need ammo and I swing by a big box store and they have RWS 380 for $17.88. I pick up several boxes because I don't reload for 380 yet and proceed to the checkout. The woman at the checkout looks at the ammo and say "Wait a second" and starts rummaging under the cash register. She comes up with a 15% discount coupon on sporting goods!
So I get home and warn the wife I'll be shooting off of the back porch and proceed testing the pistol. For some reason halfway through the first mag it dropped out of the frame. I didn't have any more trouble finishing up the box of ammo so I don't know what exactly happened. I like the slip grip but I'm not sure about the finger extensions. I pocket carry a lot and I'm not sure the extra bulk is worth it. Other than that I'm happy with it.
Anyone have experience with the RWS ammo? Any ideas on where I could get factory floor plates?
Thanks,
