	(You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links) I messaged the seller and they said the serial numbers matched on barrel and frame. It's obviously a later model than what 32-40 was available in the 44. The picture of the caliber marking almost looks like the third digit is a 2 that was stamped too high. What do you think?

	Looks factory to me. What is the serial number range? Does it have the lugged hammer?

	6 o'clock extractor is too late for a 32-40. Or so I thought.

	It's a "4". Look at the pic of the open breech and it's way too big to be a .32-20 chamber also.

	Leave this one alone! I saw it first! Almost all of the .32-40s I have logged have the 6:00 extractor, starting with 17215 (just after the 6:00 extractor appears) and running up to about s/n 31000. They obviously were selling a LOT of Model 44s in all calibers during that short timespan. All of those have the lugged hammer, too. The gun on GB has it - I already emailed the seller. I've seen a number of others that have the dot in the barrel marking in lieu of a hyphen.

	I was wrong! Thought only 7 o'clock extractor 44s were in 32-40 and 38-55.
