Hi. I recently “picked up” this H&R “PREMIER” 2nd Model .32 S&W top break revolver for a reasonable price. It’s the 7th variation with the “new” grip frame that has no step down for the grips. These were made from 1925 through 1941. As you can see from the photos, it’s in very nice condition. I’d say 98% finish with sharp clear markings. Just a few minor blemishes from improper storage. The case hardening color is strong on the hammer & top latch. The lock up is tight & timing is perfect. The bore and cylinders seem mint. This revolver may not have ever been fired. The grips are perfect as well. The serial number is 500063. I was wondering if any of the H&R experts can narrow down the date of manufacture ? Thanks, Bud
