I bought a 1951 Marlin .32 with the 24 inch barrel and shot it the first time. There is an antique Lyman 3x mounted on the rifle. I shot it the first time Sunday at the range with my son and his bud.
I took one shot leaning against the shooting platform and one of the kids said “put the gun away, 1 inch to the right of the bullseye”.
And that’s what i did. A real beauty, likely a safe queen because there was not a mark on it.

You sure wasted your money on that. But I’d help you out if you have to unload it.
I prefer classic.

A simple paper shim under the left side of the sight base will adjust the sight.

My uncle stated the 32 Winchester is a very underrated cartridge!

Trying to do two things at once. Typed a reply to this and a reply to a topic on sights in a facebook forum. Copied and pasted the sight adjustment reply to both forums.
My reply to you was about how much fun youu will have with light loads and cast bullets. It is easy to load accurate cast bullet loads in the .32 Spl. Greg Mushial on his GMDR web pae has some good low velocity data for the .32 Spl.
