My friend finally got his old H&R solid frame 32 S&W fixed. It is an 1904 model, made some time in the early 1900's. Tiny little gun, but works good now and the gunsmith has said it would be OK to shoot with light loads. I have loaded up some light loads with Unique and some RCBS 32-90-CM boolits. It will probably only be shot for a few rounds and put away, but it should be fun.
The gun was one of my friend's grandfather. It was broken probably 40 years ago, and this is the first time it has been operable since. George Simmons was my friends grandfather, and unfortunaly he passed away on Tuesday. He was 91 and he and his wife celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary last Tuesday. We had hoped to get it done before he passed away, but while the gun was finished, he passed before we could get together to shoot it. It is a neat little gun.

Two 32 S&W rounds flanking an RCBS 45-500-FN boolit.

To give you an idea of the size of the littel thing, here is a pic in my rather large hand.
