    My SUmmer Project.



    Picked this up this morning for $50
    Model 1921 Astra 400 complete lower but the slide is stripped.

    Some surface rust with very light pitting.


    I never handled one of these before and I like how it lines up.


    TIme to go to work.



    Just ordered everything BUT a magazine, which I think I can land locally.

    Well, it works. Pretty damn good too
    Was hitting a basketball sized rock at 100yds easily.

    My loads were a bit softer than the factory largo as they dropped like rocks at 90 yds.

    Got to get some 130 FMJs to load up. It's not too fond of LFP loads.
