I picked-up a Ortgies .32 today. Likely made in the early 20s. It didn't have a mag so I got it for $100.00. I had several extra mags from another Ortgies purchase.
This one is has factory option "toilet seat" grips instead of the wooden grips.
I got this one incase I ever run across a .380 barrel. I already have another .32 and a .25 and a caliber change is as simple as turning out the barrel and swapping it out. The magazine takes both .32 and .380 fodder.
They are great shooters and many ended-up in the hands of both the pre-war SA and German troops in WW-2 though it was never officially adopted so you won't find one that is WaA stamped. The pistol/mag fits just fine in a Walther PP holster.
"Gun Jesus" Ian McCollum gives a great rundown if you have the time/interest.
