Introducing the Astra Cub, a semi-auto pistol of remarkable pedigree and robust performance. Manufactured in 1965, this Spanish beauty is a gem for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Despite showing signs of use and handling, the overall condition is commendable, with fully functional features and smooth action. The right grip has a crack, and there are some handling marks and rust damage, but these signs of age and use do not undermine its character or performance.
The Astra Cub's heart is its .25 ACP caliber, also known as 6.35mm, offering a reliable and manageable shooting experience. It carries a 6+1 capacity, meaning you can load six in the magazine and one in the chamber. Speaking of the magazine, a single 6-round mag is included in the sale. Uniquely, the Cub features a magazine disconnect, a safety feature that prevents the gun from firing when the magazine is removed, adding an extra layer of security.
With a barrel length of 2.25", this compact firearm is easy to handle. Its blue finish gives the gun an appealing, classic look, while the brown composite grips with checkering and the Astra logo and model add a touch of elegance. The Cub features integral sights with a rear square notch, allowing for accurate shooting.
Despite minor wear marks, the bore condition is good, indicating a well-maintained and clean gun. The Cub operates on a Single Action Only (SAO) action, offering a consistent and crisp trigger pull. This Astra Cub is not just a firearm, it's a piece of history, a testament to craftsmanship, and a reliable tool for self-defense or sport shooting.
