H&R MODEL 732. New addition in family.

Post by james » Tue Nov 03, 2009 11:40 pm

Finally got a Revolver for first cousin , H&R MODEL 732 in .32 cal. This revolver was directly imported in 1979 ,luck enough to get the original copy of import bill, the revolver was lying in dealer stock from 1981 .
This is solid frame swing out cylinder type , not seen more rugged and tough revolver than this as off now, sights are adjustable, grip covers all the fingures, barrel is two and a half inche , transfer bar safety feature make it fall safe all the time.
Looks are like ugly but take my words ,in case the user is shot of ammo ,Revolver butt can very well stop bad guy in one blow, altogeather if you love to shoot more than 100 round every time ,this can serve you for life ,tough stuff.Cheers James

:D Congratulations

You will find the H&R a very rugged and dependable pistol. I've owned a H&R 925 top break in .38 S&W for several years and it has always gone bang and never failed me yet.

Good find! I've had one of those and found it to be an accurate and reliable pistol, though as you know they could use a little makeover in the finish department but they are sturdy little pistols.

Congratulations. It is not ugly at all .

Is it the design or do I see a sleeve inside the barrel ?

best,

Rp.

PS. Would you mind disclosing the approximate price ?

THANKS , SARGE7402, ngrewal ,Mark ,tingriman , The Doc , Sanjay .

SARGE7402 ,We fired 60 Revolver and 18 pistol .32 IOF rounds today ,not a single mis, the pin marks on bullet are hard and strong , will try to post some photographs soon.

ngrewal ,I have checked the serial number on net also , this Revolver was manufactured in 1979 and same year imported by Dealer in India.

Mark, The are suppose to be cheap stuff in USA but they are reliable and build to be abused ,no shinning blue finish but the matt original bluing is still there after 30 years with hardly any routine maintenance done.

tingriman ,I agree as SARGE7402 quoted , Beauty is as the gun shoots.

The Doc ,We endup paying really high ,2.50 l ,my cousin just could not leave the shop without taking it :lol: and dealer being good friend also ,we allowed him to earn some money. No there is no sleeve, its a design visible at the front end, the complete barrel tube is thick ,very strong and well made ,the rifiling is nice and deep ,this makes it very safe with .32 acp also.

Sanjay, Thanks for the link , due to very prominant front and adjustable rear sight ,we were comfortable shooting coco cola cane at 25M .Sometimes i find difficult to shoot this with my .32 S&W 2INCHE SNUBBY.

NO FRILLS JUST A UTILITARIAN REVOLVER. Regards, James.....

We were trying to identify ,which PACHMAYR or HOGUE rubber grip will fit this H&R MODEL 732 revolver ,The butt is square type and fatter than S&W J FRAME , so J FRMAE is out of question ,we tried S&W L Frame HOGUE grip square butt ,this also failed as H&R butt frame is still beefer .
Any suggestions ......Regards James..
