The earlier post by Mohavesam drives me to list all the Single action models in 32H&R and 327 that I'm aware of.
This is something I've wanted to do for a while.
If anyone has posted a list before, I missed it.
I'll have to leave the double actions to someone else to fill in.
Here's what I have on the Single Actions, much supplied by RENE. Thanks Chad.
Help me fill in missing releases and model numbers. ( And correct my errors) :oops:

I didn't include the Last Cowboy guns as they were embellished outside of the factory.

Also, I have no lists for the double action guns in 32 H&R and 327.
I think that would be the SP's, GP's and LCR's ? An I leaving anything else out?
Could someone add those here?

KSP3241 Model 05706 4" stainless adj sight full shroud in 327

32 Shooter,
That is probably the one I marked with a question mark.
I've got a Stainless 327 Blackhawk coming in from BigBore
but I think it's all Stainless, not Stainless/blue. I'll see it when I get it.
I don't have the model number yet and don't know too much on 327 Blackhawks.
Is the 00356 a two -tone with a blue cylinder?
Think I heard something a while back on something like that.
Any more info?
Special distributor gun?
I upgraded the list.

Glassman, Yes it is a two tone with blued cylinder and ejector rod housing. Not sure if it was a special distributor gun or not. Your list got me wondering how many I had. Near as I can tell it's 10 Rugers and a Marlin lever gun. You might say I like the .32's. :wink: :wink:

32 Shooter, I like them too.
You, mohavesam, 32magfan, Hondo44 and I aren't the only ones, are we? :lol:
I hear there are a few around Vermont. :eek:
I upgraded the list with some more Model numbers and corrections.
Not sure if I got it all right yet. ?
It's a work in progress.

Gee 32 shooter,, I have more than that. :D :D You need to get a few more!!!! :D
I know, I can't keep up with all the new ones coming out and then trying to add some old ones I don't have. Might have to work on getting the wife a second job. :shock: If you have any duplicates you can send them my way.

Another one for the list. Posts in the Revolvers section indicate
a new 327 from Lipsey's. BBC45 mentioned a couple of weeks ago that this
might be in the pipe.
No picture on Lipseys site yet but a nunber RUSSMRB327.
7 shot blue 5 1/2" adjustable sights.
Fluted cylinder?
They seem to referance Model 8164?
Would this be a SSM5A-327 ?
I'll add it to the list when I know what to call it.

I'm only adding 32s now for which I already have fitting holsters. ;)
But I'ma gonna make an exception when some intelligent engineer slips a Single-Six/Seven 327FM Hunter into the 5-axis!

I just acquired a 3" 05784? With a spurless hammer, DAO. Looks like a factory job. Is this a production revision, or am I holding an employee-only variant, as-suggested by an exec near here. Might invest in a letter but maybe I'll just let it be?
