ASTRA A-75

imported post

I just bought a ASTRA A-75 in .40 s&w . I took it right to the range which Im pretty happy with the grouping it did at 10yds . 2-3in groups to be exact . It's steel frame which I prefer to poly frames . Anyhow I'm looking to shorten the trigger pull in D/A mode but not sure where to look ???? any suggestions would be appreciated .

WOW. I have yet to meet a fellow Astra owner! I too have an A-75 and have found it quite difficult to find assistance with it. I posted in an earlier thread that I went to Blue Ridge Arsenal in Chantilly. Just to get a belt rig. The guy behind the counter gave me a brainless stare and said, "A Astro??" I said, any holster that'll fit an auto w/ 3 1/2" barrel will do. He just gave me an idiot's stare and shook his head..."I don't know no Astro..."

Wow. Never mind. I felt dumber just listening to him. I left. If you find anyplace please let me know!

BRA , is more of a range than a Gunshop.
Had a Astra A70 yrs agobut traded it for a Taurus 415.
Most generic one size fits all types work, I used a holster designed for a Colt officers model.

I've owned the A-75 (very first handgun), and the A-100, and miss them both. The A-100 was a great litte $250 17 round 9mm piece. Wasn't pretty, but went bang all the time.

An Astra A-75 was my first concealed-carry gun. I really like that pistol. It holds a place of honor in my gun safe. I took it out and exercised it for the first time in a long while the other day, and it still shoots great.

Like you, I never found a satisfactory holster either, even for concealed carry.
