JD... you can find the American Bull Dog or XL "style" guns in 32 S&W, similar to this one...

... I reciently bought this one in 38 center fire ( I assume it's 38 S&W ) just got it on Gun Broker & it's not here yet... note the guns in my links, don't have loading gates, but the one I bought does... the ones with loading gates are much rarer... but in defense of the open gate models, the cylinder indexes to where the chambers don't line up with the open gate when firing, so cartridges don't just fall out... but I still don't really like that style myself, & prefer the ones with loading gates... note mine also has the folding hammer, which made it a good addition to my collection, having both the early loading gate, & the folding hammer... however, those parts are more fragile, so while I'll make sure the gun is shootable, it won't be a gun I shoot often... the 3rd link I posted looks to be the one that would be more "shootable" provided it's in as good a shape internally as it is on the outside... er... well if you could get the trigger spring fixed...



SAM... yes I won that H&A... I was actually hoping I'd get out bid, as after I bid on that one, I found one I wanted alot more... now I'll have to find a way to scrape up the funds to get both...
