I've been thinking about one of these for a year. I don't own anything in .32 and was doing some research on it but wasn't in a big hurry. However it has been discontinued and the prices of the few around have shot up. In addition I read a review on Gunblast that I really enjoyed. It didn't matter if it was the 432PD or 431Pd to me but got this one at 3 bills in 99% condition. I wish there was a bodyguard version.
Some thoughts on it:
The article in Gunblast showed a holster from Bell Charter Oaks called the Co-Pilot. It really looked good and would suit my purpose of using it for a summer travel piece.
The sights are impossible to pick up-black on black. Its either going to get painted,or a front sight put on it or small dot night sight on the front-if its available.
I bought a box of the Federal ammo that looks decent for power but am going to try the Black Hills. The Federal was available at the Gunstore up the street.
The Hogue Bantam grips are OK but I'm thinking about wood boot grips,Spegal,Ahrends or something similar. THe laser grips sound interesting but I've never seen them in real life on a J frame so don't know how they look or feel.
First S&W revolver I've gotten with a lock. It didn't come with a key and even thogh I have no intentions of using it will call S&W to get a key.
Can't think of anything else for now.
