I picked this one up this morning but I had to give to get on this one. I'm into it around $1400.
It's in very nice shape with a shiny bore....All original finish. 24" octagon barrel, full buckhorn rear sight which I think was an option at the time as they had went with a semi-buckhorn at the time.
The only "wart" was that it had a lot of house paint specks on it I had to remove. Rem Oil took care of that. Pretty common for old guns that were kept in a closest and they painted around them when the closet was painted.
.32 WCF (.32-20) was considered a "farmer's cartridge" as it was often used for pests and (given range and shot placement) suitable for medium-sized deer. As a "working gun" you don't come across them in as good of a condition as this example.
Many Colt and S&W revolvers of the era were also chambered in .32-20 back when two guns/one cartridge was popular.
