There have been several posts about the 16-4, look at my wonderful triplets!! They shoot wonderfullly and low recoil is great to teach new shooters. Have you found one??

Thank you very much Peyton, I have never been able to search on this sight. No, I have not found one. Just got interested in the 16-4 after reading some post on another forum. I am a hunter not a collector and
have not spent much time here because there is not a Hunting section here.I had a .32 H&R Mag. in a Ruger single six and let it go. Been missing it ever since.But have always found S&W gun to shoot better when hunting.

There was an earlier model called the K-32 Masterpiece in .32 Long, after 1957 named the model 16. The -4 uses anything up to the .32 H & R Magnum, and several examples of these bored out to use .327 Federal Magnum are here on the Forum.

As to "who" these guns shoot, hopefully no one .

Here's some pics of my Md 16-4. I got this gun in a convoluted trade that involved motorcycles, guns and money. I've only shot it once and it was amazingly accurate. However, if I did shoot it often I would change the stocks. The square butt combats just do not fit my hand properly. They look pretty cool though.

Thanks for the reply and the pictures guys!

At top is a 1956 K-32 chambered in .32 S&W Long, which is the ancestor to the Model 16. Middle and bottom are 1989 Model 16-4's chambered in .32 H&R Magnum, which will also fire .32 S&W and .32 S&W Long. The K Frame .32's are my absolute favorite revolvers, if you can find one for sale do yourself a favor and buy it!
