Photos would really help.

 

Ok I will try

Hi
I just received a colt 32 20 wcf wit pearl handles and a 2” barrel. I’m not a collector of guns so really just trying to figure it’s value. The serial numbers match and it seems to be in very good condition. No pitting but has a small chip on one grip.
Any ideas on value would be appreciated
Thanks

We need much better pictures showing both sides and with the crane open.

 

The pictures are limiting, but it looks like the barrel was cut. The holster would also point to this. The pearl grips are desirable, but they would have to have a separate evaluation. Probably $250. The gun itself would depend on the barrel. Also, if it is refinished or not. .32-20 is hard to sell. Also, how good is the action makes a huge difference on a non-collector gun. Bad action and refinished maybe $150. Good action and not refinished, maybe $300. With grips $350 to $500 with a cut barrel.

 

Actually looks pretty nice, hopefully not reblued. A 32-20 is a great round in one of these, much better than the other .32s. If the barrel is original at that size (looks 2 1/2" to me) it will be valuable. The pearl grips already add at least $150 dollars, if not too chipped. Do not sell it too cheaply until you find out the facts and true worth, it could be worth over $500 easily.

Here is a Police Positive of mine with 2 1/2" barrel and pearls. Yours is a PP Special, note the longer cylinder.

 

Howdy from N Texas and welcome to the community. While the 32 WCF cartridge may not be the most popular caliber it is a fun cartridge to shoot. If the gun has been altered the value as a collector would be diminished but as a shooter I think you would have more interest in it from others here, myself included.

 

Hi
Thanks. I just added some more photos.

That is an interesting little gun. As others have suggested, better pictures are needed before anyone can give you a decent guesstimate of value.
