  • The .32 ACP (7.65 browning) is a semi-rimmed brass pistol cartridge designed by firearms manufacturer John Browning in 1899 for use in his new pocket pistols such as the FN Model 1900 and Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless. This round was originally developed for self defense applications but has seen resurgence of popularity due to its use in competition shooting sports such as IPSC and IDPA where accuracy and low recoil are essential.

    The .32 ACP offers relatively limited stopping power compared to other calibers from the era, though it still remains a popular choice in countries with strict gun laws or those looking for minimal recoil that can still take down an assailant at close range. It is also often found in small frame pistols suitable for concealed carry thanks to its compact dimensions and low weight meaning it is easily concealable even under light clothing.
