This video delves into the history and significance of the Astra 300, a compact pistol introduced in 1923 that mirrored the design of its larger Astra 400 counterpart. It was chambered in both .32 ACP and .380 ACP calibers and saw significant popularity with Spanish agencies. Notably, a substantial portion of its production, over 63,000 units in .380 and 22,390 in .32, was supplied to Germany between 1941 and 1944, with many of the .380 models bearing Waffenamt markings (WaA251). The Astra 300 was eventually succeeded by the Model 3000 in 1946.
