Hi everyone,
Random pawn shop purchase today and trying to figure out what it is exactly.
top strap says:
Harrington & Richardson Arms Co
Worchester, Mass USA
Blued, 3.25" barrel, cylinder measures about 1.25"
cylinder has 253 stamped in it
6 shot
left side of barrel says 32 S&W CTGE
has the small 2 piece black plastic round target grips
Serial is 372,2xx
I believe going by some information from B.Goforth found scattered around it is a smokeless 3rd model, 3rd variation chambered for 32 S&W long. Not sure if that is correct as I have no experience with anything 32.
If my findings are correct, hooray... if not, would like to know more of where I went wrong or how to tell specifically short vs long.
