Well Heck Abilene

Maybe and perhaps you have just dodged a bullet (so to speak). Would be a major bummer to meet and greet to final the sale and THEN get the bad news about the caliber and price hike. Nice the seller is willing to honor the original price, but in light of the fact the guns would be "surplus to requirements" as soon as you got them home, better if fall apart now. Also important, when your laying out copious amounts of folding green, you get exactly what you want.

Checking Starline, 32/20 is Out of Stock /No Backorders at this time.
I think they just did a run a short time back, no clue when they will start production again.

Well, the situation has changed. First of all, after having the guns at a recent swapmeet, the owner did some more investigating and discovered his price was low, so now they are $2600 for the pair. He told me he would still honor the original price to me, but the other thing is that I was mistaken about the caliber - they are not .38's, they are .44 Special. And while I love .44 Special, I already have a pair of Colt's which I don't shoot that much any more, plus several Uberti guns in that caliber, so I shall be passing on these. He is taking them to the SASS State match on Memorial day weekend, and if he doesn't sell there will take to a local shop for consignment.

The nice thing about shooting.32-20 is that it’s economical. Also the brass uses small pistol primers which are easy to get.

I do enjoy rereading older threads. Greyhawk, that is some very good shooting and i (myself) also shoot from the mag. as i think the powder placement (in loaded rounds) is more even verses single loading. It seems to make Extreme Spread more even and FPS closer.

coffee's ready, Hootmix.
