I know, I know, it's not a revolver. However I figured this forum would be more interesting to readers of the "old" smiths. This 32 serial 318 was shipped on April 22, 1925 to J.T.Lloyd Co. Little Rock, AR. Any info on this firm would be of interest to me. Thanx, john

I think the Lloyd company was a hardware/sporting goods wholesaler that went out of business in the 1970s

Thats a beautiful .32. I believe that the .32 model is quite rare.

Very nice old Smith! Have taken it out for a spin yet? By the way, there was one available in a local shop last week, but I don't remember it being quite as nice as yours. Thanks for posting.
Regards, Jerry

That is a very cool gun!
It is nice to see one that it is in such high condition.
Thanks for sharing.

Jerry,
Definitely not as nice. The tag price was $2100.00 but I was told they were willing to "deal". Neat gun, but they would have to "deal" quite a bit to get my interest up.
