This video delves into the history and specifics of the Spanish Astra 900 stocked pistol. Developed to meet a significant Chinese demand for semi-automatic pistols with shoulder stocks, particularly following the success of the Mauser C96, the Astra 900 was a well-made and reasonably popular firearm. The video explains how international treaties prohibited military arms imports, but stocked pistols, including automatic variants, were a loophole. It details the Astra 900's chambering for 7.63mm Mauser and the evolution of its subsequent models (901, 902, 903, 904/Model F) with varying features like select-fire capabilities and different magazine configurations. The description also links to related content on other Broomhandle variants and relevant ATF documentation.
