Thank you for your time. Does the Astra 400 fit a model 1921 military? I think they do but I do not know for sure. Thanks again!

MarkJerry,
It's the same gun. Here is a cut and paste from a google I just did:
A brief history of the Astra Modelo 400 (1921)
In 1912 the Spanish Armed Forces selected the Gampo-Giro Model 1913 as their standard issue sidearm. In 1920 the decision was made to replace the Gampo-Giro with a new pistol, three designs were considered. The Astra Modelo 400 (1921) was one of these pistols and was selected in August 1921 to be the new standard issue sidearm of the Spanish Armed Forces. It remained the standard issue sidearm until 1946 when it was replaced by the Star Model A.

MarkIf I was a genius I'd have pretended that I knew all of that stuff off the top of my head instead of going "Hmmm, never heard of an Astra 1921 before, wonder what it is? Where's my google bookmark..."
