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.
