Inherited a like new pistol that I am researching. A uncle brought this back from Europe in the mid 1940's, and it has been passed down like so many other family possesions are.
So I know this much. It is a 1935A French SACM 7.65 X 22mm Longue. The pistol is in very good condition. Original finish, nothing missing (mag included), and my uncle even had some cartridges stored away with it. None of them work by the way. The bullet in these cartridges appear to have steel casings. All duds!
So what do I have, a military relic or a possible pistol I can take to the range? I do not see any ammuniion for this handgun for sale.
