Browning’s 1908 “hammerless” (it’s internal, just can’t see it) is a fantastic design, hampered only by sights only a 14 year old has the eyes to use and the manual safety is hard to manipulate by comparison to more modern ones. I have one of 1922 vintage, and it’s the only .380 I’ve found that cycles everything.

In the book, “John M. Browning, American Gun Maker” it mentions that his favorite pistol was the little .32 auto, basically the same gun as what you mention.

He designed over a hundred guns so that is pretty high praise for that little gun.
