Astra 300/400/600
Astra 300
The Astra 300 pistol was introduced in 1923 and was produced by the Spanish firm Astra-Unceta. The Astra 300 is a scaled-down version of the Astra 400 and thus the two are almost identical, apart from the size of course. The Astra 300 was even more popular than its larger cousin because of its compact size and was produced in both 9×17mm Short and 7.65×17mm SR Browning. The Astra 300 was also exported to Nazi Germany after the Spanish Civil War and issued to the Luftwaffe.
