Smith & Wesson Model 32-1 .38 S&W CTG 2" Blued Revolver w/ Ivory Grips & Box

Up for auction is a classic and highly collectible Smith & Wesson Model 32-1, chambered in .38 S&W (CTG), featuring a compact 2-inch barrel, elegant blued finish, and fitted with attractive ivory-style grips, complete with its original factory box.

The Model 32-1 is part of Smith & Wesson’s long-running J-frame “Terrier” series, known for its compact size and smooth double-action operation. Originally designed as a reliable pocket revolver, it became popular for concealed carry and backup use, as well as a favorite among collectors of classic Smith & Wesson handguns.

This example stands out with its traditional styling and desirable accessories, including the ivory grips, which add significant visual appeal and collector interest. The short 2" barrel gives it a classic snub-nose profile while maintaining the balance and handling characteristics the Terrier line is known for.
