The 7.65 × 17 mm Browning is a cartridge for self-loading pistols developed by John Browning . It is also known as the .32 ACP ( Automatic Colt Pistol ) , .32auto, or the 7.65 Browning; their correct metric designation is 7.65 × 17 mm HR ( H alb r and).
history
The 7.65 Browning was based on the .32 S&W in 1897 when Browning designed the FN Model 1900 for the Belgian Fabrique Nationale d'Armes de Guerre (FN). Browning realized that cylindrical casings for self-loading pistols offered advantages over bottle neck casings. From 1903, Colt manufactured the cartridge under the American imperial designation .32 ACP, which helped it to be widely used outside of Europe. The 7.65 Browning is one of the most widely used pistol cartridges in the world. It is the weakest ammunition suitable for service weapons.
