My Zastava M70 .32 gooey mess came in today!

[Captain O]

Yes. It’s a proven design that’s very dependable.

Strange, how it has worked since 1929. No "plastic fantastic" parts, a smooth DA/SA action... What's not to like?

This is a West German police issue that was surplused and exported to the US in the late eighties. Great pocket pistol and easy to conceal.

Nice! Is that an interarms import?
Speaking of Walther...Smith and Wesson Walther? Those names just don't ssem to belong together on a pistol, ya' think?

I can handle a bit of Bakelite on occasion.

A Bakelite grip can prove advantageous in the battlefield. God knows I carried Hogue "Monogrip" a more than one duty weapon.

It was West German made and used by West German police units. It was imported by either SOG (Southern Ohio Gun) or Century Arms close to 30 years ago.
