Have you had any problems with it. Are you handloading for it and how has it performed for you. (Thinking of splurging on one for tax return gift). Thank you fella's

Any reason you're choosing those calibers? .38 Spl/.357M is widely available and would be easier to re-sell if you get tired of it. Or, go for the originals and get .44-40 or .45 Colt.

The .32 is the size of the Single Six.

Well, I know I want one and they never seem to be in stock.

FWIW, I have a Single Six in 32 H&R that I like very much. It's a great cartridge for that handgun. Accurate, easy to shoot, tough on critters. 32 S&W long is relatively cheap and easy to find for practice.

I’m assuming it’s either 32 wcf (32-20) or 32 H&R mag. Or am I missing something?

For clarity, here's the link I've been birddogging for about a year:

Lightning® 32-20/.32 H and R Dual Cylinder, 3 1/2 in.

Designed along the lines of the classic Colt 1877 double-action revolver with its distinctive birds head grip--the '77 Colt model was a favorite with such Old West characters as Billy the Kid, John Wesley Hardin and lady outlaws Calamity Jane and Pearl Hart. Cimarron has improved this handsome...

FWIW, there's one offered for sale on GB right now. I'd have jumped but I already blew this months mad money:

I already have a Single Six Vacquero in .32 H&R (bottom, below the .327 Single Seven) that's a real honey.



Ruger did a similar combo with their Buckeye Edition with cylinders in 32-20 and 32 H&R, but that was a larger framed Blackhawk offering.

That helps. It’s a duel cylinder. Odd they didn’t make it double action.

both cylinders.

 

[swg1]

The regular grip version is available with the 32 dual cylinder option or in 38 special if that floats your boat.

 

[cfullgraf]

I have a 1920 version of a K-frame chambered in 32-20 as well as an vintage 1873 Winchester also chambered in 32-20.

They are a nice combination.

I have a uberti 32wcf/ 32H&R it's a neat little gun did have one small issue that I'm sure was isolated it looks like someone at the factory stuck a rimfire flat faced firing pin in it and the pin would get stuck in the primer and lock up the cylinder. Took the pin out and rolled the edges a bit with a nail file and it works perfect now.
