29 minutes after you first post you are making sarcastic remarks because of no immediate answer???? Go fish guy. Some times a couple of days will past before one of the contributors to the forum comes along with the correct information

My copy of the 1939 Stoeger Catalog still lists the young American for 6.95. The 32's were in .32 S&W (The little short cartridges).

Roy, if it's marked Young America Bulldog as you listed, the late H&R expert Jim Hauff said all marked Bulldog were rimfire:

Is the firing pin round and pointed or a flat blade?
