Curious about these .32 revolvers

[Alan]

Is the lightweight .32 revolver becoming popular again?

I have a light 32, mine is an Iver Johnson, that was my great grandfather's off duty carry gun. So there is family history with it. They have a bit of a cult following. The newer 327 federal is breathing new life. My interest is more peaked by the light 38's, just love my j-frame ultralight, 17 oz, with 5 plus p hollow points .

More folks I know have been talking about the Ruger LCR in .327 Federal lately. Seems like lightweight .32s are quietly making a comeback with the revolver crowd.

I have 3 .32 revolvers in S&W Long.
A 1930's Colt official police (no picture for this one), a 2" S&W model 30-1, and a S&W Hand Ejector. I'm watching for a replacement hammer for the Hand Ejector. Numrich has some for the older I-frames, but they are different. The hammer I need looks just like one for the K-frame Victory model, only smaller.
The 2" 30-1 with a 3" 36-1

The Hand Ejector

 I've been noticing more interest in them lately especially from folks who are looking for lighter ways to carry things. It really does feel like it's making a bit of a comeback.

My interest is because of increasingly bothersome arthritis in my hands. Also because of that, I like a good smooth not too heavy trigger. I don't carry, so weight is not an issue, but recoil certainly is for extended (100-125 rounds) range matches.

I think maybe the 327 fed in a single or double action might work. My j frame has a Wilson spring set in it the double pull is still in the high 9's, but if that is manageable, it might be your ticket

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like a winner!
