You were on the right track but had merely skipped over the Winchester 1903 which used the .32SL

You have a real weird Hand Ejector, then. Your picture shows the bottleneck, slight as it is.
There are a miniscule number of .32 S&W Long M&Ps but they are sure not marked .32 Winchester.

Ammunition specs shift around. My Colt .44-40 cylinder will not accept handloads in Remington brass. I was about to send it back to the gunsmith who had fitted the .44-40 cylinder to my .44 Special gun, but tried some factory Winchesters which did fine. Reloads in the Winchester cases did fine,

The 1903 Winchester was in .22 Winchester Automatic. Transmogrified into the Model 63 when .22 LR smokeless became standard in the market.
The 1905 was made in both .32 and .35 WSL.

AIM is currently offering "shooter grade" (worn but serviceable) for about $250 taper 4 inch M10s. they also have some more expensive HB models.

I once passed up a tapered barrel round butt M10.
Never saw another.

Perfect for the OP, IMHO.

Well everyone should have a "Barney Fife Memorial" S&W M10 and one cartridge....

I was shooting a M15 (model 10 with adjustable sights) a couple of weeks back and some other folks at the range looked on in wonder like it was some rare antique. One woman looked as though she thought the one handed double action with off hand in the belt at 25 yard of six shots in 30 seconds was quaint. Shoot it was the way one did it in the 1960s!
