Smith & Wesson "Lemon Squeezer" 32 Safety Hammerless Top Break. $250

3" barrel, , appears functional, very nice condition sans the fingernail sized spot of nickel worn off (seen in the left side photo).
Serial number puts it on the earlier side of the First Model production years of 1888-1902. However, as I don't know the exact production year, selling as C&R rather than "Antique".

Colt 32 cal Pocket Revolver - $450
"
The Colt Open Top Pocket Model Revolver in .32 caliber is significantly rarer than its .22 caliber counterpart. While the .22 version saw a massive production run of approximately 75,000 units, the .32 caliber version had a much more limited release.

According to historical records and Colt production data:

  • Total Production: Approximately 3,000 units were manufactured in .32 caliber.
  • Production Years: These were produced between 1871 and 1877.
  • Variants: Within this small production run, there are two distinct frame types:
    • Early Production: Featuring a "thin" or "flat" frame.
    • Late Production: Featuring a "heavy" or "reinforced" frame.
The .32 caliber model was eventually phased out in favor of the Colt New Line .32, which featured a solid frame and was considered a more robust design for the larger caliber. Because of the low production numbers, these revolvers are highly sought after by collectors today, especially those with the "32 CAL" marking clearly visible on the left side of the frame."
