The 32" barrel length does not agree with the Parker Brothers records. To confirm that you have an original 32" gun and not a cut 34" gun, post a picture which clearly shows the top of the rib at the front sight. An original gun would have a short blank space at the end of the rib matting. In most cases, the absence of this blank space is a sign of a cut barrel. Step one in a restoration is to order a PGCA letter on your gun so you can determine whether it has an interesting ownership provenance, and also if Parker Brothers may have created the 32" barrel length.
