Hello,
I did read this thread about someone looking for a full-size 32 ACP autoloader :
https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/mid-to-full-size-guns-in-32-acp.733696/
Some are looking for a full-size 32 ACP, and I am too. So I did some research and found in the Tanfoglio 2019 Catalog on page 36/37 a full-size version of the FT 7 and FT 9. The FT 7 FS:
http://www.tanfoglio.it/pdf/Tanfoglio_2019.pdf
From what I understand the FT 7 FS is the 32 ACP and the FT 9 FS is the .380 version.
They exists in shorter barrel versions, and a reduced size gun also.
These are polymer frame, steel slide, and 17 rounds mag available on the 32 ACP version.
Barrel is 4.64" long and the entire gun is 8.18" long. Weight 860 grams (30.3 ounce).
Not sure if these are available in the U.S, I see there is this EEA website, but the FT 7/9 i not listed in their catalog. I hope I can get hold of one here in Norway. Only thing I would like to see is barrel threads for a suppressor. But it should be possible to make a barrel adapter to extend the barrel with a threaded part. With a fixed barrel (not moving backwards during cycling) one does not need the spring-piston recoil system (Nielsen device) in the suppressor. It should be a nice gun too shot I think, with less recoil than the 9mm.
