As far as numbers go, SCSW says there were 3630 of the original K-32 .32 Long made from 1947-74. These, of course, have become highly prized by collectors and the price has skyrocketed. The 16-4 .32 magnum full lug was made from 1989-92 in 4", 6", and 8-3/8" barrel lengths, with a total production of 8800.

After looking for several months, I found this one, a 4" LNIB with papers, combats, etc. about 6 months ago. Paid $740 OTD and was happy to do it, wouldn't sell it for that right now. You can find them listed on the auction sites from time to time, and I would consider anything in the $800-$850 range with all the goodies to be a pretty good deal.

As for the specific gun you're looking at, if it is 95% but without the original combat grips and box/papers, maybe $600-$650. I think the combats are generally worth about $150, and the original box/papers maybe another $50. At least you could argue that point with the seller.

If I'm too far off base here someone should be along to correct me shortly...
