Default Is This .32 Rare With This Long Barrel?

I have a couple old .32's that have been in the family for a long time. Is the 6" barrel considered rare on this gun? I know the condition is really bad but was just curious about that long barrel. This was in my family since the 50's when my dad aquired it somewhere. The nickel one was my great uncles in S.F. until he he died in the 70's. Thanks for your help in advance.

I'm not sure if I'm splitting hairs here, but in my opinion the 6 inch 32 SA is not rare but is very scarce. In any event it is quite collectable. The nicest part is both have a history in your family.
