About the Cartridge

This cartridge was introduced in the United States along with the Browning-designed, Colt manufactured 'Vest Pocket' pistol. Also referred to as the 6.35mm Browning, this semi-rimmed centerfire cartridge has fairly high velocity for such a small size. However, the energy it delivers at any range is quite low. This, combined with the full metal jacketed bullet, adds up to a very poor stopping or killing power on anything. The .25 ACP is not powerful enough for hunting anything but pests, nor is it adequate for serious self defense. However, the .25 auto caliber pistols are popular because of their small size and low cost.

Holster???
By JediSayia on 26 Aug 2023
Not a single jam in 2 years. This lille monster seems out of place in all but the smallest of holsters. My pants pocket is it's usual hobo get-a-long. 22LR and + metal body = ZERO recoil.

I have both the Nickle plated and this model. These little guns run better than most guns in 22.cal that cost 3 times as much. Rated A+ by Gun-test mag and I could not agree more. Customer service is top shelf and a life time warranty. Many are cheap as well. Reliability is fantastic along with trigger. Have owned this gun since 2009.
