So, all you .32 owners, send those useless guns to me.
I recently bought a '69 31-1 and put some Sile grips on it.
I can't wait to take it out to shoot.
I picked up an old box of Western .32 S&W Long, Lubaloy ammo.
$18.99 for 50 rounds. Wonder how old it is?
The Lubaloy looks suspiciously like the copper plating Speer uses.
BTW, that 430 is sweet.
I've considered having my 31-1 reamed out for .32 H&R, but the .32 Long can be loaded to over 1,000 fps with a 115 grain lead bullet.

I'd love to see a 115-grain hard cast SWC lead bullet driven at the same velocities. When it comes to antipersonnel applications, PENETRATION IS YOUR GREATEST ALLY!
I would like to send my 632 out and have a 4" stainless steel barrel "crunch fitted" in place of the current 2" barrel. This would make the same 115-grain bullet run out of the tube at at least 1100 fps, ensuring penetration.
