The old RP has been one of my long-time favorite revolvers for casual carry (ie "woods loafing") and seems to be the perfect platform for the 32 S&W Long. I like the 95-100 grain bullets (LSWC or HBWC) in front of about 2 gr of Bullseye (+/- 0.2 gr.) I've got a fairly early '20s vintage one that is nice mechanically and pretty nice cosmetically but has had a replacement 6" barrel installed. I'm looking at it strongly with the idea of changing it to the shorter barrel like the one you mention and perhaps having King Super Police Night Sights replicated by USNRigger. Now THAT would be a super little carry gun!
