This time with a nice little Marlin 1892.
Originally a convertible .32 rimfire/.32 colt gun, I wasn't interested in adding another cartridge to the stable or messing with heeled bullets, and the chamber was kinda rough anyway, so I rechambered it to .32 S&W Long. While the barrel was off, of course I went ahead and internally threaded it for one of my adapters.
.32 S&W (short or long) are such a kick in the pants out of suppressed rifles! I have a little Stevens favorite I also converted from .32 smooth bore rimfire to .32 S&W long, so this is not the first, but I really have a thing for antique Marlins, and it was a good price on the rifle.
Can is my 1.125x6" .32 cal Cheetah model, meant for .32 ACP pistols. Very quiet on the rifles!
