I personally don’t have a .32 and never even shot one. The .32 is a pretty weak round, but I can see the appeal of the small Tomcat. I considered one myself, but found I can pocket carry a small .40 when I am not IWB carrying a .45 ACP. If I were carrying a .32 I would not trust the penetration of the Glasers. I would alternate FMJ with the Hydra-Shocks because a Glaser against a 350 lb attacker may only hit fat. Many people say 9mm or 38 spl should be the minimum for self defense. I think the modern .380 ammo made for self defense is good enough. A .32 with ammo that penetrates well is not so bad, but shot placement is always key with any caliber. Gun color? I do not care. Oh, I liked your home page, especially you taking a selfie with a kangaroo!

Ya, thanks re: home page. It's still a WIP.

Twelve feet or less the .32 will mess up your day. I do alternate Glaser's with Hydra-shocks with the HS as the first round followed by the GS's. And at twelve feet a head shot no matter how big or fat they are they're going down. Then too, I'd be aiming for the crotch. And I practice. The IDF urban snipers targets the knees first then the crotch area then the head. And they use Ruger 10/22's
