Model 16

[Retired W4]

Here is my K-32 Masterpiece/Model 16 (no dash) that was lost in the mail. It has just a hint of muzzle wear and was bone dry when I got inside. It appears to have been carried just a little bit and hardly fired with an incredibly nice trigger after I cleaned and lubed it. I'm hoping to get all my K-32's to the range soon. I have more 32 S&W long ammo than I'll ever use. The case colors did not show in the first two pics so I got a close up. Pretty spectacular.

Great looking revolver for its age. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful gun, would love to have one. The K-38 Heavy Masterpiece is my favorite post war Smith and I shoot one nearly every week, if I had the 32 it would come along also and I would do my best to wear it out !

Lost in the mail? Are they seller's pics, or did you finally get it and they are your pics, or is it still lost?
That's a beautiful gun!

My pictures. What was lost, now is found.

Good luck wearing one out Keith.

Wow, that is a beautiful and stunning revolver. I’m really jealous.

I saw one at a local gun show last weekend that had a lot more wear and marks on it and priced at $3200. I actually couldn’t believe I was seeing a Model 16 at a small hometown gun show, thinking it was mismarked, so I had to pick it up and take a closer look.

I like your style! You have more than one K-32 and you shoot them! I have but one K-32; a 16-2 and I shoot it. Maybe I'll have more when (if) I grow up.

FYI

And they are some what pricey. My other 16ND, which is pristine, was $2300. This one was ONLY $2000. Now the 5 screw "pre" 16 is another story. With original box, tools and letter, $3600. If I ever find the 4 screw non model marked K-32 MP I'm looking for I would expect to pay even more.

My ultimate dream is to find a first or second year pot War K32 (with tapered barrel and narrow rib) to go with my K22 & K38 of that vintage.
