But clearly the big winner is the capacity. 32 cartridge, it was quite common as both a self-defense load and a military chambering back in the day. Besides, despite modern feelings about the little. It offers shootability, concealability, and capacity. 32 ACP, I definitely see the appeal of this pistol for anyone looking for a carry or home defense gun. If we set aside the fact that this gun is chambered in the relatively anemic. Recoil is minimal, as are the sights, but even this old pistol was self-defense accurate at 15 yards with the first two magazines I ever fired through it.

The 1917 can be easily recognized by the two screws required to hold its larger plastic grip panels. The 1907 had a slightly smaller grip and used no screws in the entire design.
The two guns were nearly identical with the exception of the grip.
Growing off the original Model 1907 produced from 1907 until 1920, the Model 1917 offered two calibers. Regardless, the Model 1907 and its offspring did host some impressive qualities, from a 10-round capacity and compactness to cunning internal engineering. That included publicizing endorsements from powerful celebrity influencers of the day like legendary gunslingers Buffalo Bill and Bat Masterson of Wild West fame.
