Been looking for a .32 M&P for a while. The SCSW says there were abt 4800 made. Maybe I'll have to look closer at the model 10's on the tables at shows. Does anyone own one and if you could please post a pic. Larry

It's interesting that there are fewer K-32 Masterpieces than there are fixed-sight M&Ps, but the Masterpieces show up at the auction houses or forum classifieds more often than the M&Ps that actually exist (or once did) in slightly greater numbers.

I've been keeping an eye out for them too. If I find more than one, I'll send you a PM about the second one.

Mike, nice trio. Do I understand that the five-inch barrel is the hardest one to find? I think I read somewhere that fewer than a thousand were made in that configuration.

I think Mike did an excellent job of answering your question of why you see so few available. A trifecta no less !! Outstanding

Nice guns Mike, were they hard to find? Dave, I'll be looking for your PM. Hope you find a couple. At the show today I was talking to someone that saw one recently for 650. Tried to get it for 600 than passed when the seller wouldn't come down on the price. Went home and looked at the SCSW and was bummed he didn't buy it. Larry

I believe the majority were originally shipped out of country.

These guns have always been hard to find. I think the 2" is the
scarcest - I know I paid more for that one than the other two
combined.

Ray Brazille says that, at one time, he had a 6" .32 M&P . That was
years ago, and I have never seen one. I would have to say that the
6" is the most scarce.

Regards, Mike Priwer

Default .32 Reg. Police

I know this is an I frame, and the M&P's are K frame....
but the heart is the same.....

Heck, we'll let it count. Thats a very nice early gun. Don't see them as nice as that at the gun shows either. Larry
