    I would opt for a .22 LR firing solid bullets over the 7.65mm Browning (.32 ACP). The .22 is a lot cheaper to feed with similar ballistics to the 7.65mm. No argument with the .45 ACP!

    You are a true craftsman and have done some lovely work for me.

    the best bit about the non concentric suppressor is you can retain iron sights, mount scopes lower without seeing the supp ect

    765mm is approx 30 inches. would be a tad hard on the shoulder
