Browning 6mm 35

[Mopardan]

I inherited a "baby browning" 6mm 35. I've been searching the web looking for ammo, and it appears its the same as a 25. Is this correct? My CWP should be here soon and was looking for a decent pocket pistol. Not sure how well this would work. I have a Springfield XD9 subcompact that will stay in my truck. Thanks

Ok, so I picked up a box of 25 auto shells, but gotta go to work so it will be tomorrow before I try it out. Read a post on another forum that the 25 is a cross between a 22 LR, and throwing rocks. I might have to rethink this one!

I found this in a Google search:

Thanks for the link. I looked up the ser # on the Browning site and its called a 25 on there. Made in 1968 I think.

My aunt had a .25 auto.
I shot a couple rounds into the end of a stump and some of the rounds penetrated all the way in the stump.
putting the gun in someones gut and firing a few rounds is better than just pistol whipping them... I think...

I think in the case of birdshot, the shotgun makes a better club...
