Our Assessment: The Dan Wesson Model 732 is a high-quality, double-action revolver chambered in .32 H&R Magnum, a versatile cartridge known for its balance of power and manageable recoil. This model, featuring an 8-inch vented heavy barrel, is designed for precision shooting, offering excellent stability and reduced muzzle rise. The vented rib helps dissipate heat during extended shooting sessions, while the heavy barrel improves accuracy by reducing vibration and barrel whip.

This particular Model 732 sports a blued finish, adding durability and a classic aesthetic, along with a checkered walnut grip that provides a comfortable and secure hold. The addition of a green fiber optic front sight enhances target visibility, especially in low-light conditions, making it ideal for target shooting or small game hunting. Like other Dan Wesson revolvers, the interchangeable barrel system allows customization, a hallmark of the brand’s innovative design. The .32 H&R Magnum chambering makes it an excellent choice for shooters looking for a flat-shooting, mild-recoiling revolver with precision and craftsmanship.
