5+1 for both the 380 and 45  you would think the 380 held more..

The 45 is bigger than the 380. I had a 380 I carried back in the early 80s. It ran well and it shot for me about the same as a j frame. The only criticism I had is the safety would move too easily.

I always had a soft spot for this auto mag. If I ever find one of these Clint's I'm buying it!

I shot this gun last Saturday.  Those hyper-velocity 300 grain HP rounds sure chewed-up some bowling pins, lol!  It's NOT a .44 Magnum.  It's a .44 Supermag with rifle brass formed down to .44 cal.  Dirty Harry wouldda been proud!

I did freestyle first (2 hands) in a Weaver stance.  2nd mag I did strong-hand only.

 

Harry was right, "if used properly it will REMOVE THE FINGERPRINTS"!  LOL!  What a BLAST that thing was to shoot!

Well saw this and put a deposit down,  had to have it to go with my Hardballer.. In new condition i am assuming it was hardly ever used being a back up..AMT .380 back up.. Old School Pistol..

My parents had one.  Shot it a lot as a teen.  It was my mom's carry gun when they owned a store in the late 70's/early 80's.  They have a reputation of jamming but I never had any problems with the one my parents owned.   Very heavy for a compact carry guy by today's standards.

im not much of a polymer pistol guy.. i would rather all steel.. the hardballers were also finicky.. good extractor cures them..

Most AMT guns are prone to having issues. There is an AMT forum and guys on there will talk about how some AMT's are more for collecting than shooting - some because they are chambered in obscure calibers and some because they are know to have function issues.

Mostly what this one is for collecting.. My hardballer runs good... but i did change out the hammer, grip safety and extractor.. actually started out uspsa with it..

Yup, I've got an Automag II and Automag III. I shoot them, but they can be finicky at times.
