Hello target tech
It is evident your K-32 has all ready been fired such as mine has. I don't feel shooting a gun degrades it so long as they are cleaned well and not beat around in a Leather holster or carried. Mine see's Range use often and does not show any more use than when I got it lightly fired Five years ago.  If your gun were mine I would enjoy it some you don't know what you are missing as these guns shoot scary accurate with very mild recoil making them Very Fun to enjoy... Hammerdown |
Concur. There is no reason not to shoot a classic in near new condition provided you handle it carefully while you have it out of the safe and clean it properly once the range trip is over. Now that I think about it, I haven't had my shooter K-32 out in over a year. It may go along with me on the next range outing.
If I had an old gun that I knew to be NIB or had good reason to think had not been fired since leaving the factory, I would probably leave it alone. But if it has obviously been fired, permission to fire it again has been granted; what has NOT been granted is permission to treat it carelessly or inattentively.
