.32acp conversion

[toysoldier]

Has the Ruger .22 auto ever been converted to .32acp?

A custom Mark I in 32 long is for sale on gun broker , and has been for a while. I believe these were made by Marquart rifle company in Az. I saw one at the San Antonio gun show and it was an interesting piece but not 3200.00 interesting. The gun looked fairly well done but the magazine looked crude.
32ACP , never heard of one .

Thanks for the information. I get these ideas---with no way to pursue them.

I can't imagine why you would want one, unless you just happened to inherit two or three cases of .32ACP ammo. If you have, contact me--I have a Colt M1903 that doesn't get shot nearly enough. :wink:

I am not a fan of massive revolvers, or semi-auto pistols that look like they were band-sawed from a slab and painted black. I can appreciate a gun that isn't any bigger than it has to be. I regret selling a really nice Type 14 Nambu, but back then money was scarce, and ammo (from Midway) was high. I bought it for $50 and sold it two years later for $300.

Sometimes we get an itch to make or buy something "just because." Often the itch rolls around for many years and then something clicks and it becomes a need to make real. Other times it percolates into "that'd be cool, but why?"
