Default Saw an old Smith & Wesson today (Bought it Today)

I stopped in at a LGS I have done business with before just to look around. In the used case was an older revolver I am curious about. It was a hand ejector, .32 cal, finish was mostly gone. The tag said it was a 1905 second change? I am going by memory. I did not examine it so I do not have a S/N. It looked very much like the one in this photo I borrowed from Sixgun Strumpet (thanks). After I left I got to thinking I should have looked at it closer, since the asking price was $129.00. Based on what I have provided, should I go back and take a closer look? I have never had a .32 revolver but not against it. Thanks.

The one in the photo is a .32-20 Military & Police K frame. It is similar (except for size) to the I frame .32 (Long) Hand Ejector model 1903. In this instance the .32 Long is easier to find.

If it is functioning and not rusted out/pitted/etc., either would be a good buy at $129.

That is what I got to thinking. Any S&W complete, not completely rusted and functional should be worth that asking price (which I may can negotiate). I'll go back Saturday and further look at it.

Let me start by saying that I know nothing about those older .32s, but for that price, you probably can't buy a non-firing replica to hang on the wall. Might be worth a look.

If it functioned reasonably well, I would give $129 for any Smith handgun out there.

For $129 I'd be on it like white on Cream Of Wheat.

Shop was closed on Saturday so I went back today. Revolver is a .32 Hand Ejector Model of 1903, 5th change I believe. S/N is 256925 which dates it to near the end of this run, maybe 1916 or 1917. Finish is gone,has some pitting on side frame, small S&W logo is gone from left side, but all numbers match except the stocks which are not numbered but are likely original and very worn. Seems solid and functional both SA and DA. If only it could talk. This is by far my oldest S&W and I am awed by the fact that is is almost 100 years old. Pictures to come soon. Oh, the price? $108 OTD.

You're gonna like it. Assuming you reload. You'll need to buy the components on the internet but it's all out there.

I ran across an old Smit a couple years ago. Was the first pre-model # gun that caught my attention. One of the members on this forum told me that any functioning Smith over 100 years old was a treasure.
Mine is a shade over 109 years old now and I shoot it at least twice a year. I consider myself very fortunate to own and be able to shoot this treasure. I hope you enjoy yours.

Here is the proof, some quick cell phone photos. I may or may not shoot it for now, It is a very interesting thing to own though, especially for $108.

I have a couple of old S&W 32s. i generally can find commercial ammo online or at some local shops. I don't see any reason not to shoot that gun. You'll enjoy it and the gun will probably appreciate it too. It's not like you're going to hurt it. If it functions properly, you'll likely be surprised at the accuracy. I know I was.

I'll bet a bunch, that good cleaning will make that old jewel shine. Just don't be too aggressive, and follow up with wax.

I would love to see an "after" photo. Pretty please !

A lot of folks belittle the 32 S&W Long as too puny for self defense... I would only say to them "don't stand in front of someone who is shooting one!" This is a good all around revolver that can provide hours of plinking fun and is also useful for basic self defense. Yes I have one in my CCW rotation, a post-War snubbie. If you reload (and especially if you also cast your own bullets) this may well be the cheapest thing you can shoot! I agree with JohnK that a good cleaning and a coat of RenWax or other paste type wax and appearance will be fine and if your evaluation of mechanical condition is correct (have a gunsmith check it if you don't trust your own experience/judgement on this) you should be ready to take it through its centennial years and beyond. Congrats.

PS I've got an old Ideal tong tool to load this caliber... makes for the completely simple but fun pastime of reloading on the cheap anywhere I want to do it!

For now I do not reload but may start in the future. I have done a little cleaning on it already. The bore and chambers are very nice. The worst part is the stocks. They are almost worn smooth.

"... worn smooth." That's good, honest wear! If you are going to keep this as a shooter, enjoy the stocks as they are. You might also wish to look at some of the now-discontinued aftermarket stocks available through various auction sites as well as a personal favorite, the J-frame targets that completely enclose the original grip frame and give a little more to hold on to. There was a Mustang set years ago that were similar in size to the targets but shaped more like the smooth combats you see on K-, L-, and N-frames... wish I'd never let myself be talked out of the set I used to have!

Reminds me a lot of the one I bought a couple years ago for about $75 more than you paid. Still one of my favorites.

Nice snag. .32 Long? Soak it in a mild cleaner and go slowly and gently over it with an old tooth brush wipe down and repeat. It should lift the rust, crud, dirt excreta and leave the patina and blue. Bought an old .32 I frame for a best friend in about 2000. Did the same thing and it came out fine.

What a nice old revolver. I'm very jealous. It'd be very rewarding to load your own ammo for it.

Talking .32 WCF

I picked this one up at a local gun show about 18 months ago for less than $150 OTD. It is circa 1915 and shoots like a champ, as you can see its a brown gun but is one of my favorites and my 7th 32. You can not stop with just one. I reload and it makes them most shootable on the cost scale. A hundred pieces of brass will last 10x reloads or much more given these are not hot loads. Enjoy!

I am into this one about $150, shipped late Summer of 1910, although still a second model. This one easily goes through a 2 x 4 (1 1/2"), so one would think it would be more than adequate for self defence.

Maybe look harder.

An active imagination may help.

I have 2. For guys that reload they are a great answer to the 22 shortages. Primer $.03, powder not even $.02 and some scrounged lead is less a nickel a round. Even if you buy lead they are still cheap once your setup. I bought 1000 rounds of brass, a set of dies and a bullet mold. I can plink and shoot small game fforever. Some say the brass iss good for over 20-30 reloadings.
