I have a S&W 32 Long CTG Hand Ejector, with a barrel length of 4.5 inches, fixed sights, 5 Side screws, and a strain screw as well.
The serial number's all match and is 22095.
The gun was dropped and the hammer spur broke off, I need to find a replacement hammer, if possible. The numbers behind the yoke are :
3 space 646.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS Measure from the end of cylinder to tip of barrel for length determination.

Thanks for all of the information!

It's a Hand Ejector. The revolver was made long before model numbers were assigned. Not sure what year but long before WWII. Likely you are measuring the barrel length wrong, or the barrel has been cut. Pictures of how you are measuring it would help. The numbers stamped in the crane area are meaningless now.
 
That thing is prehistoric. Probably around 1905. I am confident somebody with better info will be along soon. You will have to look some to find a hammer but it is not impossible. FYI it is completely possible it will function with the hammer spur missing, the loss of mass will likely not make it not go bang.
 
Heck, I would just round the broken spur a little and it would be a decent pocket gun with no spur to get hung up on the draw. Some folks spend good money for little custom touches like that!
I like the 1903 .32s; I have several and I have shot them a lot. I appreciate the quality S&W put into their guns so they last indefinitely with proper maintenance.
 
I didn't see anyone mention it, but the S/N is located (normally) on the bottom of the grip frame. On certain .32's on the front strap of the grip frame. The hammer would fit from quite a few years of the I Frame 32's, and Numrich gun parts is one source for parts.
