Analysis

This .32-20 caliber revolver offers a compelling option for shooters seeking a blend of historical design and practical performance. Its accuracy is noteworthy, particularly at moderate ranges, thanks to a well-aligned barrel and consistent cylinder lockup. The ergonomics are comfortable for most hand sizes, with a grip that facilitates a natural point of aim. Reliability is a strong suit, as the mechanism handles regular use with minimal malfunctions when properly maintained. However, maintenance can be a challenge, as cleaning and disassembly require attention to detail due to the intricate design. Parts availability is another concern, often necessitating specialized sourcing. The trigger pull is smooth, averaging around 4 pounds in single action, though some may find the double-action pull heavier than preferred. Felt recoil is mild, making it manageable for extended sessions, though it may not suit shooters prioritizing raw power.
