S&W Army #2 Centerfire

[JohnHenryD]

I have an S&W Army tipup 32 that someone has converted to a centerfire by putting a firing pin in the frame under the sideplate. They then bored it out to a 32 S&W case diameter. I have been having a ball reloading 32 S&W's with blackpowder and shotting it. Has anyone else seen one of these conversions? It's pretty cool as it's not very noticeable unless you pull the cylinder and then you can see the firing pin hole. Pretty accurate also.

Ron, I thought I gave you the info. before on this gun but can't remember. I have two #2's and I do seem to remember listing at least one but not sure which one. How do I get photos to you.

Hi John Henry
Thanks you can reach me at [email protected] or fill out the survey form on web site wwwmodel2project.com
I would rather have duplicates rather then miss one. I can use a photo showing the method of conversion to center fire, I currently have three different approaches to the conversiion

Thanks Ron
