All that I know about this six shooter is that its way out of my league & price range!
The .32 Long Colt (commonly called the .32 LC or simply .32 Colt) is an American centerfire fire revolver cartridge.

Description[edit]
Introduced by Colt’s with the New Line revolver in 1873, the .32 Colt was inspired by the .320 Revolver.[1] It originally used a .313 in (7.95 mm)-diameter 90 gr (5.8 g) outside-lubricated bullet, which was later changed to inside lubrication, leading to a diameter change to .299 in (7.59 mm), a slight reduction in bullet weight, and a shortening of overall length.[2]
With a case lengthened by .31 in (7.87 mm) over the .32 Short Colt[2](which means the .32 SC will chamber and fire in any weapon designed for the LC), the .32LC is in the same class in power as the .32 Smith & Wesson Long,[3] without comparable accuracy.[2]
More popular in Europe than North America, Colt was the most prominent American manufacturer which chambered any weapons in .32 Long Colt,[2] most notably the Police Positive. The FAMAE revolver produced in Chile is currently offered in .32 Long Colt

So you are thinking of buying a gun(s) huh? Well good for you! I have had a lot of fun and enjoyment from it for the past 40 odd years. I hope that you have the same great experiences as I have had.
Okay we got that part done with. Time now to move on. Now like any other human activity. Owning or just wanting to learn about shooting is a mix bag of things and issues. Both good, bad and indifferent.
So here goes. When one learns how to handle themselves with the use of arms. It will change you in some ways.
Because after you have learned the basics of how to safely use and operate a firearm.
You have just taken a huge big step. In that from now until you step into the Rest Home for Old Farts. You have now become a citizen in the truest meaning of the word.
For example. In Ancient Greece and during Republican Rome. Only those who knew how to fight were deemed worthy of citizenship. While some may consider this a a very hard nose view today. It still holds water today in my humble opinion.
Because sadly. I believe that man has not really changed that much. That is why, we have some really tough and scary folks out there on the public payroll.
Who are always out there training & planning to do some horrible things to other folks. If need be.
I also like the idea. That of instead of the people being afraid of the Government. In this country, The Government is slightly afraid of us. Maybe this is why it is always looking for ways to limit our right to bear Arms?
Next when one gains this knowledge and their level of skill increases. It also imposes a discipline and ethical burden upon you. Since now you literally have the power of deciding life and death or serious injury upon yourself, others and property.
This is some very serious stuff to think about. So before you start down this road . One needs to have a very tough & realistic discussion with yourself on this very issue.
Because God forbid if you have to fire one off in dead earnest. Somebody or something can and probably is going to get seriously hurt.
Or killed. You know that thing where you do not get up again ever. Where also you find out if there really is a God or not.
Also if you have kids that you come into regular contact with. You know those little folks. You will have to take that into consideration. Since they can & will do dumb things all the time.
Obviously somebody did not train this kid up right. But more importantly you did not secure that pistol properly.
You also will run a good chance of going to jail. “NO SHIT” as my Old Drill Sgt. would say at Ft. Dix. “So think real hard on this one Rookie.”
Okay now if I have not scared you off yet. Or you have finally left your safe place. Here is something else to think about.
Most guns in America will never shoot anybody in your lifetime. barring the collapse of American Civilization. (Sorry Preppers / Survivalist, but I seriously doubt that is going to happen soon!)
By this what I am trying to say. Is just think for a minute about it. 
Now let us assume. That there is say about 90 million guns in the USA that actually work. From this then lets us say this. If they killed just one person each. 
Then that would be more than the combined Honored Dead of all of our various wars, Car Accidents and other forms of death in this country. So all I have to say is “Really”?
All right let us proceed from this to other things about the shooting world.
Just imagine the stories that this old timer could tell us!

National Reciprocity for Concealed Carry Passes, Next Stop House Floor
AP/J. Scott Applewhite
National reciprocity for concealed carry passed the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday is expected to receive a floor vote before the end of the year.
The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 was introduced by Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) on January 3, 2017. It changes federal law that so concealed carry permits are treated like driver’s licenses, making a permit from one state valid in the other 49.
This would fix the complicated and often confusing patchwork of concealed carry laws currently in effect throughout the country.
To put it simply, Hudson’s bill allows the common man to defend himself and his family as he travels throughout this country.
On November 28 Breitbart News reported that Hudson’s legislation was scheduled for a markup in the House Judiciary Committee and the markup would serve as the last stop before a floor vote.
In fact, the markup demonstrated the committee’s confidence that national reciprocity was headed to the floor.
Hudson released the following statement once national reciprocity passed out of the House Judiciary Committee:
My bill is a simple, common sense solution to the confusing hodgepodge of concealed carry reciprocity agreements between states. It will affirm that law-abiding citizens who are qualified to carry concealed in one state can also carry in other states that allow residents to do so. I am pleased to see such strong support in committee, and I look forward to continuing this momentum and bringing the bill to the House floor as soon as possible.

Wow!
The 2nd Generation Colts are the favorite of many, and for good reason. They are built as well as the 1st’s, and by the returning WWII soldiers. This one is especially attractive with the deep blue finish and gold accents.
The man was a class act, who was blessed with one hell of a voice. He was 87.
RIP & Thanks for the Memories!
