I want one. Fortunately I have the LCR22 and 9mm and 38 to train with. A snub is a wonderful EDC firearm. And one of my favorite to shoot for fun. The only downside with the 32 mag is the outrageous cost of ammo. This is not IMO a gun that you can get the necessary frequent and diligent training that the Snub demands. If I get one, it will be CARRY ONLY.
Have you seen the price yet? Hopefully shotshow will have them manufactured by Ruger for sale.
I LOVE THE BLACK AND TAN!

I currently have an LCRx in 327 Mag so I can already shoot all the other 32 revolver rounds. The apparent draw for this one is that it weighs 13 oz versus 17 oz for the 327 Mag version. I also have an LCRx in 38 special that weighs 13 oz so I can compare it to the heavier 327 Mag version. That 4 oz is really noticeable.
Will I want to get one of these too? Probably not until (or if) they make an LCRx version with an exposed hammer. Even if that happens I may aim my scarce gun money at something else I can't live without like a 10mm GP100.
I already have several 32 caliber revolvers to choose from; a big frame Vaquero convertible in 32-20 and 32 H&R, a 3" SP101 in 32 H&R (made before there was the 327 Mag), another 3" SP101 in 327 Mag (when 327 was introduced), and the before mentioned LCRx snub in 327.
I realize I'm not the target audience for this revolver, those wanting a lightweight revolver in a light recoiling round for concealed carry. Nevertheless I'm pleased to see renewed interest and new guns chambered in 32 H&R.

I agree with timbo , resurrect the 32 
OP
Talo has a 3" LCRx model in 327 (5446) in the works as well. Something I've long been hoping for!

Yep, the difference in weight make carrying much more reasonable. I carry my 38 95% of the time. I have always been a believer in light weight guns for EDC. The older I get, the more I love the Snubby. There really are "Make it simple stupid.". So easy to load/Unload, no racking a slide, no magazines. And they are the most fun I have shooting and I shoot a lot. Now a light weight, gun, and with 6 shots makes it worth the investment. I almost bought a charter Arms in 32 also light weight, but really not familiar with them.
As Hickok once said when shooting the Snubby. "There is just something about them".
Has anyone owned or know about the Taurus 327? It seems to be priced much lower than other 327Mags and if it is any good the difference will buy a lot of ammo.

Taurus gets NO more of my money.
I don't care how good the guns can be or get, the corporate policies on parts and repair still suck.
It will never be cheap enough. Never again!

Good to see the .32 being made in a few more revolvers. Looks like S&W has one out too. https://www.lipseys.com/itemdetail?itemno=SM14034
That is one I might be interested in as well.

I have the following LCRs, 357 mag, 327 Federal mag and 22LR. I also have a GP100 in 327 fed mag.
I really like the 327 caliber.

I have an LCR in .327 mag also. I shoot the .32 H & R out of it probably 98% of the time.

Neat looking LCR. I picked up a .327 version in a pawn shop for $350 out the door. They said nobody would buy it because lack of ammo. Also have one in .357 magnum and sp101 3 " 32 H&R. I prefer the extra weight so don't see me buying one. Carry with .32 H&R anyway. Shot some .327 once, makes a great flamethrower but too much recoil for quick recovery.

I have a taurus 605 ( 357 ) and there isn't anything I can complain about. Like most guns, the trigger responded well to minor attention and is light and smooth.

If the LCRx has adjustable sights w/3”bbl, I’ll likely have to get one.

Nope, not just you.
Ya know, Lipsey's also has a 3" Sp-101 in 327,,,,,,,,,, with sights.

I shoot the H&R outta my 327’s most of the time, heck I might shoot more 32 longs. I like the option of filling it up with 327’s when the 10mm is too much for a hike.

I have one of those , I have just recently gotten "in to" the 32 caliber revolvers .Nope, not just you.

I picked up the 327 SP recently as well, but haven't had it out much yet due to Fall/Winterizing chores.
The Talo 3" LCRx in 327 has been announced, I started a separate thread about it...I'll definitely be picking one of these up as well.

Now THATS what I was talking about!
The SP101 is just TOO HEAVY for my purposes. Just look at the MASSIVE barrel. Probably desirable for a .357mag, but too much for all day carry as a “KitGun”.
Perhaps 90% of the rounds through my Single7 have been.32Longs. I like them a little warm as it greatly improves the accuracy.
In keeping with current Ruger pricing, it’s probably $900 mfg suggested retail…

Oh, you better look out. You might be starting down a slippery slope, don't ask me how I know.
Here are my .32's. They need to stop bringing these new ones out.

you sure have a collection 
For now, you have me beat .
This is a Taurus 731 UL in 32 H&R , 6 shot , built on the 85-605 small frame , slightly smaller frame as the Taurus 327 , which is built on a steel 856 frame.
Im thinking that Taurus will make a 7 shot
32 H&R on a 856 aluminum frame, which will sell like wildfire.
I have waited patiently for Taurus to produce the 3 inch model 327 with a hammer..
Personally I like my 731 UL and 856 UL in 38 spl.
Great revolvers
