Very neat collectable. Congrats!

Interesting that it has a different number on the barrel? Unless it has been machine altered from a 32rf to a 38 cf smooth bore? How does the bore look? It should also have a machined chamber with case stop. My 44Rimfire does....I'm going to dig mine out and post a few photo's. I am torn between a modified barrel and simply Frank Wesson using one of the 5000 barrels he had laying around for the 32rf? It's possible since these are so rare. Just strange that the number doesn't match. That's a tough one to swallow.

I recommend you look closely at the hammer and recoil shield. It's pretty obvious when a gun is converted from rimfire to centerfire. If the hammer looks unaltered and the recoil shield looks uncut? Then it has to be legit. I'd look closely though. If it's altered from a standard 32rf the value isn't there.

Could you post additional photo's of the hammer? I'm curious as to what a centerfire hammer would have looked like on one of these.

Also: "Does the stock have a matching number???"
