Questioning a PT132

[MMCSRET]

I know I'm opening myself up to a firestorm of "TAURUS BASHING", but here goes.
My favorite handgun caliber is 32, I have revolvers in different chamberings of 32 that span more than a century and several different cartridges.
What I would like to find is actual hands on experience reports of use of the Taurus PT132. I think I need a 32 Auto to compliment my revolvers and I am fond of taurus revolvers as well as every other name brand including Iver Johnson and H&R. Someone with personal experience with the PT132, please enlighten me.
Thank you.

I would be interested as well. I have considered one myself.

I bought a PT132 Mil-Pro last February and so far it's been a very good pistol. Good quality, accurate and mild recoil, I've fired around 500 rounds through it, all FMJ, and it has never skipped a beat. For me it as a good grip and feels light in the hand. I really like shooting the pistol, much nicer that my P32. So far I'm very pleased with it. Paid $360 plus tax for it, a good bang for the buck.

The DA Trigger is average at best.

If you reallky want a nice 32acp, I suggest the CZ-83.

It's big. Probably comparable to a Glock 19. It comes with a 15 round Magazine. The DA trigger is mushy but light. The SA trigger is shorter, mushy and lighter. Recoil and accuracy approaches a good semiauto 22lr.

DA/SA Ambi manual safety and mag release.

If you can fine the 32 acp Beretta, it's a sweetheart.

Also consider the Taurus 58. It has been in production in Brazil for over 20 years, and can come with a 19 round magazine.

My preference would be a Mauser Hsc or a Walther PP, both from 50-60 years ago. Not readily available, I don't want a large 32 Auto, but 5-6 rd. capacity is too small. Thats why I was asking about the PT132.

Kel-Tec p32 is 7+1, and KT makes a 10x extended mag as well.

MrsBFD got me one for my birthday, it is a lot of fun to shoot and seems surprisingly solidly built.
