Default Picked up 32 DA today

While out making the rounds of my LGS on a ammo check I found this 3" nickel, 32 double action and worked out a deal for it.
It's nice and clean with just a few issues with worn spots on the cylinder. action works great and holds well at full cock with no push off.
Not much in the way of ammo, got 1 box of 20 gauge for my coach gun but I'm very happy with the little 32.

Looks good, and the grips are not chipped.

Does this mean you cock the gun then try to make the hammer fall by pushing on it? If not, what does it mean? Just curious. I've always wanted a 32. I've got a bullet mold for one but no gun.

Nice looking DA, CGN! These are fun little guns to shoot...if you can find .32 S&W ammo anywhere.


@max503 --> Yes, pushoff is as you state. While these top breaks are fun and cheap to buy, you might look for a .32 hand ejector which will shoot both .32 S&W and .32 S&W Long.

Nice catch on that little 32. It is also great that the single action works as it should. I have examined many of the 32 Double Action models that will not hold in single action, must be the Achilles heel of this model.
