I bought it. I found a good barrel at a gun show and luckily it fit in the
gun I wanted it for but did not fit in the other old .32. But I think any
fitting issues would be minor and just require a little work. Just take
your time and don't get in a hurry and make sure the new barrel fits
into the receiver just like the old barrel before you try to assemble
the gun or you may end up with a handfull of locked up parts that
are not easy to disassemble. Don't ask me how I know this.
Haha! Sure will do! On a side note, I know people generally shun those who think of refinishing a vintage firearm, but seeing as how this one has already been refinished(?), would it be taboo to file some of the pitting down and reblue?
