If the primary purpose is self-defence, .32 ACP makes more than double the energy of a .25ACP. Both are pipsqueaks but in terms of performance the .32 is a lot better.

From Wikipedia.

.25ACP

Bullet mass/type Velocity Energy
35 gr (2 g) JHP 900 ft/s (270 m/s) 63 ft⋅lbf (85 J)
45 gr (3 g) JHP 815 ft/s (248 m/s) 66 ft⋅lbf (89 J)
50 gr (3 g) FMJ 760 ft/s (230 m/s) 65 ft⋅lbf (88 J)


.32 ACP
Bullet mass/type Velocity Energy
60 gr (4 g) JHP[1] 1,100 ft/s (335 m/s) 161 ft⋅lbf (218 J)
65 gr (4 g) JHP[2] 925 ft/s (282 m/s) 123 ft⋅lbf (167 J)
73 gr (5 g) FMJ[3] 984 ft/s (300 m/s) 158 ft⋅lbf (214 J)
73 gr (5 g) FMJ[4] 1,043 ft/s (318 m/s) 177 ft⋅lbf (240 J)


Just my opinion.

Its a good pistol but .25 acp ammo when fired from such a short barrel has less energy than .22lr so you cant stop a person attacking you who is on drugs

On a serious note its a good pistol smooth operation and more compact to carry you can put it in your shirt pocket and no one would know......I would keep the .32 if I had to choose between the two calibers
