I didn't even know they existed, but a local gun store has a K32 in wonderful condition for $3500. I'm not going to buy it, but if anyone is interested let me know and I'll give you the shop's name and number.
Found a K32

Welcome to the Forum, and thank you for this Post. A rare K-32 in excellent condition is a little out of my price range, but I'm sure that there are quite a few other Forum members that would be thrilled to buy one of these unicorns! You should be receiving PMs soon.
Pre-war or Post war? If like the one at the top of this page with proper pre-war magnas hold on to your seat. Even an early post war model marked gun (Model 16) would be a great find. Which is it?
This thread needs pictures. I watched for a K32 for 20 years and never found one in the right condition at the right price. And then in an auction last October I bought two of them. Here's one from the early 1950s.

Rare birds, but I have no idea what the current going price for a K-32 is.
I don't really know either although I've recorded ten recent sales of a mix of pre-32s, -2s, and -3s. They ranged from $1880 to $3819 plus sales taxes and shipping, some with boxes some not, some with correct stocks, some not.

FYI - I paid more than that for one 4 years ago at a Tulsa symposium. It did however come with the box. If I was looking I would certainly buy it. PS: mine is a birth year gun.

But it was a beauty....
So I have two. An ugly one, no box, and a pretty one with the box. Someone say the pretty one has been refinished, I don't think so, but. For the record if the condition is right, $3500 isn't crazy.

If it was a Model 16-4, ‘80s-‘90s vintage one, $3500 is a dealer dreaming. oTOH, for a pre- model number K32, it could be a screaming deal. I agree that more info and a couple of pictures would really help.

A K-32 is on my grail list. But I've never even seen one in real life.
I do have a 6" 16-4. Nice gun, but it just ain't the same.

I was looking for 16-4 for a few years, but they were expensive, even more than 500 EUR
I got several hundred LAPUA wadcutter cartridges and needed a revolver to shoot them out
I would have liked a 16-4 4" or a 31 3" or 4"
Now I have whole Target Masterpiece family, 14, 16 and 17, lot of LAPUA cartridges for all caliber.

Some recent values---fairly recent from those of mine that went away during the liquidation of my collection during the three years ending a year and change ago.
K-32 1st Model----$7135
K-32 2nd Model (Narrow rib/Satin Blue finish)----$3825
K-32 3rd Model (Wide rib/Bright Blue)----$3525
The 1st Model was a 95% gun, but scruffy---poor care and handling. That said, it was what it was-----and it was the only one I'd ever seen.
The other two were better. One of the other two had its box, but I don't recall which one.
