I would not hesitate to fire any 32 in a 327 gun, or anything other than 327 in a 32 mag, BUT I would prefer a second cylinder with an easy change mechanism simply for the consideration that there is a huge difference in cartridge length between 32sw up through 327 or 32 mag (not a huge difference between those two, but there is a difference). A second cylinder would minimize blowby in freebore bumping the power up in the shorter cartridges, and shortening up freebore at least theoretically increases accuracy. Couple those technical points with the carbon ring situation (that so many people fuss about in 357 guns shooting 38s because the same thing happens in 32 but nobody gripes about it in 32) makes me agree, 2nd maybe even 3rd cylinder would be nice. For sure make a cylinder to handle 32acp which will also fire 32sw. 32 long is what most people shoot so why not make that cylinder as well to go along with the mag and acp cylinders.No extra clyinder needed .. It will fire 32 Long & short & 32acp
For those who own charter arms revolvers, how do the triggers compare to a j frame? I’m assuming they can also be improved by a gunsmith?
I think its hit and miss, maybe? I have exactly one example. My last j frame was a 642. I didnt care for the trigger as I cut my snubbie teeth on an LCR. The CA I have has a hammer. Double action is acceptable but nothing like an old smith. Single action was surprising nice for a sub $400 gun. Clean break for very accurate shooting.For those who own charter arms revolvers, how do the triggers compare to a j frame? I’m assuming they can also be improved by a gunsmith?
I'd still rather have a 6-shot .327 Fed over a 7-shot .32 H&R.

I’ll be shooting almost exclusively double action. How’s the DA pull?I shoot single action 99 % of the time and the trigger pull is great,
If you handload, .32 H&R can be turned up a great deal in firearms that can handle it. I've got loads for my SP101 that are pushing 90 gr. bullets at over 1,300 FPS. I don't know if this 7 shot critter would take the pressure, though. Those loads are knocking on the door of .327 pressures.
My Charter revolvers out of the box trigger is gritty but lighter than a stock J frame ... I have owned a dozen and a half Charter revolvers , from Gen 1 on tho newest offferings .. Triggers are all lighter than J frames ... But they are a bit gritty .. After 100rds and Zero Friction they smooth up ...For those who own charter arms revolvers, how do the triggers compare to a j frame? I’m assuming they can also be improved by a gunsmith?
Their 357 magnum frame should be able to handle .327 Federal Magnum.
I hope they come out with a .327 revolver eventually.

Charter introduces a 3 inch barrel 7 shot ( yes 7 )
Great. I like the idea. If I wanted to get the absolute maximum velocity out of a .32 I'd opt for a Single Seven with the closest thing they make to a 6 inch barrel.
I think the 7.5" barrel is the way to go. if you are going to use a high pressure round you may as well get everything out of you can get.

Does the DAO hammer spur they offer for sale on their website not work with it?If/when they have a DAO hammer spur for it, I will probably buy one eventually. Seven rounds is better than five or six. I am comfortable with 32 H&R for SD.
I already have three other CA revolvers and ordered a 22lr this morning. The triggers on mine are surprisingly good. I wish they had a DAO hammer for their 45acp Pit Bull.
Yes, the DAO hammer works on the small frames and Bulldog frames ..Does the DAO hammer spur they offer for sale on their website not work with it?
Yes, so much the better. Why bother with pushing a revolver made for EDC/CCW to the limits of its design specs when you can just go buy a Ruger, and then you have both?
