It came back with a vengeance. Freedom Arms chambered the 97 in it. Hamilton Bowen said it was great, the rest is history.

Ruger introduced the Single Seven and off it went. Now various models of GPs, SPs, Single Sevens and LCRs. Henry has a rifle and who knows what's coming?

Glad to see life in the old 32s.

how much someone (I think Huey) said it beat the 327. Sure gave life to the small calibers. Next on my bucket list.

Unlikely I'll forget it. Its a modern 32-20 plus some...

Easy to find parent case that's sturdy and easy to form.

As good as the old 32-20 is, it can be finicky. The short neck and sharp shoulder makes the 321 GNR a breeze.

Thinking a rebarreled Marlin 357 Mag is in my future.

Fun, little recoil. The heavy calibers recoil hurts these days. May have a few .41's for sale soon.
