History of 32 ACP Ammo

The .32 Automatic Colt Pistol (ACP), also known as the .32 Auto in the U.S. and the 7.65mm Browning in Europe, has a storied history dating back to 1899 when John Browning created his first successful commercial automatic pistol. Known for its lightweight lead bullet (.308 to .3125 inch) in a semi-rimmed, straight-walled casing (.680 inch length), the entire cartridge measures just under an inch (.984 inch). This low-power ammunition, prized for its low recoil and lightweight concealability, has been chambered in more handguns than any other cartridge in history. Its legacy endures, with most American and all European ammunition companies still producing .32 caliber rounds.

How Does 32 ACP Compare to Other Calibers?

Caliber Recoil Pros Cons
9mm The 9mm has moderate recoil, higher than the 32 ACP, but still manageable for most shooters. The 9mm is versatile, widely used, and offers good stopping power, making it ideal for self-defense. Compared to the 32 ACP, the 9mm is larger and may be more challenging for compact or ultra-lightweight firearms.
380 ACP The 380 ACP has mild recoil, making it slightly more controllable than the 9mm but more than the 32 ACP. The 380 ACP is popular for compact, easy-to-carry pistols, offering a good balance of power and size. Although effective for close-range defense, the 380 ACP generally lacks the stopping power of larger calibers like the 9mm.

    Great for short ranges (10 yards or less) and reasonable kick for JHP.

  • 22Tony said:

    Better ballistics, high quality, American made, all at a lower price than competitors. What more can you ask for.

  • AL said:

    We have shot 300+ rounds with no problems. I am purchasing (2) 9mm handguns and possibly a .40 or .44 mag. so i will be looking at your site for competitive pricing. Thanks for the opportunity to voice my opinion. Respectfully, Al Young

  • Jpoj said:

    Great products

  • Boatguy007""" said:

    ~ There are many choices still in .32 ammo, but I consider the Hornady .32 ACP to be in the top three as far as Quality and value. You would have to move to Gold Dot or perhaps Federal Personal Defense to do any better. Cheers & Safe shooting out there! Jim

  • Art said:

    Just awesome ammo... just perfect!!!

  • STARK said:

    Met my expectations.

  • Mark said:

    The above statement is worded well enough.

  • Fitz said:

    Fired 6 rounds in auto,, Performed well, no misfires.

  • James said:

    Good buy. Good quality

  • David said:

    First rounds through a Seecamp 32 were flawless. Ammo seems to be great. Value at this time can't be rated accurately as ammo shortages have driven prices sky-high. I'd buy it again in the future.

  • Pistol Pete said:

    This is an exceptionally affordable ammunition and is my go-to choice for my bi-monthly training sessions at the range. I do manage, however, to experience "hang-fire" on perhaps 10% of the rounds fired. Bit of a nuisance, of course, but I simply count to three and it without fail fires successfully on the second try. In all fairness, I should mention I am firing the Seecamp .32 pistol, which was designed specifically around the Winchester "Silvertip" 60-grain JHP round, which fire flawlessly with never an incidence of hang-fire. As these are difficult to locate, and are fairly expensive, at generally 92 cents per round, I typically reserve the Winchester rounds for my daily concealed-carry and train with the highly affordable PMC ammunition.

  • ClayT said:

    My order arrived in a timely manner and in good condition. The Fiocchi shot well with no hang ups. The ammo is accurate and is the right price considering the cost of other hand gun ammunition.

  • Feld Marshall said:

    Shot 50 rounds worked very well. Loaded to European standards which makes it a great caliber for self defense. Only one cartridge I have used that is better is the Geco, which I cannot find anywhere, any longer. Would recommend it for those looking to carry a concealed weapon with the information on the 32.ACP. This is a great caliber don't sell it short .

  • chrismyster said:
