9.5" Single Six 32 mag ??'s

Are they scarce or more desirable than the shorter barrel lengths? A friend of mine just bought one & wanted me to check before he cuts a few inches off the barrel.

Yikes! I wouldnt chop it! I think a 6.5 was the most common bbl. Length and 9.5 is much tougher to find. If its in good shape i would think he could come out money ahead by selling the 9.5 and buying a 6.5. All depending on condition of course.

Awesome revolvers by the way!

I would not cut the barrel. Most accurate handgun I own and fun to shoot.

His gun do what whatever please's him.
The 9.5" are the least common.
There are those that prefer the long barreled guns.

Me... I turned my 9.5 into a Bisley, Brass Bisley nevertheless. :roll:

My gaggle of 32Magnums, I prefer the look of the fluted cylinder.

Should come out money ahead to sell and buy the shorter length he wants. I know where a pair of 6.5" guns are in my area. If he wants a 7.5" barrel, there are Single Sevens in that length also.

He can do what he wants, it is his gun but i would leave it be.

Thanks,

Thanks guys,
He just wanted to check & make sure it wasn't something really rare before he changed it to better suit his needs.

Sell it to someone who will appreciate it.

I wouldn't cut it either. I have a single six 32 H&R in 6.5 and it's a great gun, but I wouldn't cut down a 9.5 to make it 6.5. Sell it and find what you are looking for,they are out there...
