That looks to be a .32 Double Action 4th Model, from around 1900. Chambers 32 Smith & Wesson cartridges. That is the short cartridge not the 32 Smith & Wesson long.

thanks. where can i purchase the ammo for it?
Try a big box Sporting Goods store like Academy Sports, Cabela's , Gander Mountain. If you don't have one of those near you, you may have to order it off the internet.

any brand/ powder grain you recommend?
Any brand commercial ammo that you can find should be fine in the gun.

thanks much appreciated
Welcome! Here is one source:
Magtech, .32 Smith & Wesson, LRN, 85 Grain, 50 Rounds - 85430, .32 S&W Ammo at Sportsman's Guide
If your .32 DA is in good condition it will handle this fine. In the right light, the bullets move so slow you can actually see them in flight (no kidding!)

I find most LGS may have 1 or 2 boxes of this on the shelf as there are quite a few old other makes that use the .32 S&W. I'd check there first before ordering on line.
thanks it is in good working order was last fired about 15 years ago cleaned and put away by my grandfather. Just ordered from that link you posted

Welcome to the forum.
You might also try a local gun show. Many times I have found boxes of old ammo at shows plus you get to look at a bunch of other neat guns too.
