(Apr ?) 5.96 pats pending. Now I know this is a .32 as i've shot it yrs back, I just dug it out of the safe to ck' the dates. and it's only a 5 shot.It's nickle or chrome plated w/ mother of Pearl grips. hammerless top break w/ a little saftey thingy set into the trigger.The cylinder will unscrew on this one also. Neat little piece but not a quality built gun. Above posts said the 32s were 6 shot so what do I have.--JMJ--
