Had to buy the gun to get the ammo. 32-20

Post by Oldncrusty »

I've had the .32 bug for a while and been craving a .32-20 in some form. This one will do nicely.. Early/ mid 1920s. 2 factory Winchester, and the rest are reloads for recycling

Looks a lot like a 2nd M&P model of 1905

I'm not so much into that cartridge, but that is a GREAT looking firearm that will make a nice family heirloom! Come back with a range report when you can my friend. -Tutt

I'm still studying, but so far I think it's a 3rd model. The ser no is several thousand past the the number given by Bluebook as the start of hardened cylinders. Not sure if that is a reliable indicator or not.

Nice! The ammo is probably worth near what the gun is at todays prices.
Good luck with your new find.

Ohhhh. I am. My favorite cartridge of late. Remington 25, Browning 53, and Ruger Blackhawk.
Kind regards,
