I don’ know much about the 32’s as I don’t find them very interesting although I’m sure a use could be had for them outside of the old bullseye arena…the thing to me that seems odd, is that if this was a combat masterpiece, why doesn’t it have a tapered bbl like the 22 and 38 combat masterpieces of the era? Also, I have never even heard of a model 16 being marketed or sold as a combat master piece….I do know that in later years after the original combat masterpieces/model 15 was no more, that they made the model 14 available with a heavy 4” like on this .32 in this thread. I believe that it was still just named the model 14 target masterpiece…..A true tapered bbl 4” model 16 combat masterpiece would be very highly sought after although I am surprised if they ever existed that I’ve never heard or seen of any. I do have several of the 38’s and .22’s and love them. And I know the early-ish pre-underlug bbl model 16’s are highly sought after too for some reason I can’t understand…..either way, this is a pretty cool and probably modified .32 masterpiece…looking forward to the rest of the story if you do letter it. Cheers
