432PD
Got my hands on a very nice 432PD recently. I am having one heck of a time finding .32 mag ammo for this thing. Does anyone have any insights on finding it? I'm honestly considering selling at this point and finding other scarce guns. Thoughts?

I shoot .32 S&W Long at the range and save the factory .32 magnum ammo for carry when the latter is in short supply.

I picked up one a while back. My youngest daughter really liked it. It’s definitely a “roll your own” gun. I load .32 H&R for my 16-4 and .327 Fed Mag for my SP-101, so I keep her in ammo. I recently picked up some .32 S&W brass and I’ll load up some of those for her as a light plinking load.

This is what I do. Shoot 32 S&W long for target practice; use Buffalo Bore for carry. I love it as a carry gun for my adult daughter. She prefers it over the recoil of a 38 in a J-frame, and it holds one more round. The Buffalo Bore ammo kicks like a standard pressure 38 and the ballistics are on par with the same. As of last week Buffalo Bore was available on their website.

When I chronographed the 100g Buffalo Bore 32 Mag rounds they produced a bit more muzzle energy than Remington's 158g SWCHP +P 38 Special round. (Both from 2" J frames on the same day.) Of course, physics being what it is, the 32 kicked just like the 38.
But the 32 did give an extra round in the cylinder. And more economical and pleasant-to-shoot rounds when loading my "fun" rounds in quantity.

Keep in mind these guns will also shoot short 32 S&W, and in a pinch ,most 32 revolvers I have owned will also headspace and fire 32 auto.
I would keep such a unique and versatile gun, and be patient with ammo. Absolutely a reloaders gun.
I like to go to gun shows and dig through those junk boxes a lot of vendors have - you can often find a partial box of this or that ammo cheap and that keeps me shooting at times.
