32 gauge anyone!

[Musket Man]

I went to a gun show today and came home with a single shot Iver Johnson Champion in 32 gauge! I have herd of 24 and 32 gauge but this is the first one of either I have seen. I was surprised to see that Midway sells shotshells for it. I will probably get brass hulls and load my own for it. Has anyone else been around a 32 gauge?

Needs more pictures. Never seen one in real life.

Nice find. Brass hulls would be the way I'd go too. Never seen one.

Very cool. Never laid eyes on one.

that would be similar to a .410 wouldn't it? very cool gun MM!

Never heard of it. Went and searched it pretty neat. Should be a heck of a squirrel gun. That fioochi ammo isn't really that bad priced.
And if you don't mind what did it set you back?

Its just a little bigger then a 410. Its built on the same frame as the 410 I have that was my first shotgun and was also my great grandfathers. I believe the barrels would interchange but I havent tried it yet. I also have early Champions in 12, 16, and 28 gauge and I just couldnt pass this one up. I paid $400 for it, got him down from $495. You can buy the popular calibers for $150-200. Now I need to find one on 24 gauge! haha
