look on page 843 of the 29th edition of the blue book. the H&R hammerless revolvers are listed as seperate models. this is a second model 5th variaion. i am the one who gave the blue book its information on H&R's so what i have is what they have. there are no known factory serial number records on any H&R firearm manufactured before 1940 so no exact date of manufacture will ever be known.

what i can add is the exact configuration of your revolver is almost rare. a long barrel hammerless (extra charge) over sized hard rubber two piece grips (extra charge) and 6 shot 32 S&W caliber (rarely seen in the Hammerless model). yes it will handle either the 32 S&W or the 32 S&W Long cartridges and is safe with smokeless powder
