hey guys. this pistol belongs to a friend of mine. the story that goes with it is that his grandpa bought it brand new. then he gave it to his dad and then he gave it to him. anyways, its in very poor condition. the bore is very bad and the finish is almost completely gone. i'm just curious of the year it was made and what caliber it is. i found a few things on the net saying its a 32 caliber but not sure if its for black or smokeless powder. the serial number under the grip is N7340. thanks for any info you can provide
