Hopkins & Allen 32 rimfire info please?
I've a Hopkins & Allen 6 shot 32 rimfire double action. This is a Bulldog type with normal trigger and trigger guard. Not a spur trigger. It's merely marked "Hopkins & Allen Arms Co." pat Jan 5 88. This is across top strap. No other marks except a 3 digit serial number on frame. Under left grip.
Small with a 2 1/2 inch octagon barrel. No loading gate. Just an opening for loading. Everything I've found proclaims such a revolver an XL Double Action. Then goes on to state that these were 22's 32 SW and 38SW. That the 32 rimfires were spur triggers. So, what do I actually have as a H&A? Will XL Double Action parts fit? It's missing the lever, lever spring? and trigger spring. With cleaning I think the nickle plate will shine up a bit.
Don't actually care what it's worth. Just an interesting revolver I'd like to get functional and know something about.
Thanks
