IIRC, the only worse caliber is a .25

i've got a .32 s&w 5-shot revolver, hammer-less, crack barell that was my paw paw's. nice to have since a family gun but the trigger is AWFUL. it's easier to find ammo for it than i thought it would be (until recently 
)
it is an under performing calber

A lot of older autos were in 32 as well. The euros love calibers like that.
I'll rock a 32acp when I can't carry anything else do to concealment issues.

I picked up a .32 Beretta last year just because it was a good deal. I shot a mag through it to make sure it worked and put it in the safe.
I gave a soccer mom $150 for it and it is in great shape.

Are we talking about the same .32 that you can shoot out of .327 magnum revolvers?

I don't think so. Guy I kne growing up had a .32 magnum Ruger revolver.
This is a .32 auto. It's between a .25 and a .380.
IIRC, the 32 magnum looked similar to a small .357.

My dad has some kind of old semi-auto in .32 caliber. I want to say the gun is russian, but I'm not sure. It actually shoots really well.

That's why I was confused. I wasn't aware there was a .32acp out there.
Carry on

I have a Taurus .32L revolver that ended up at my house after my grandparents died. I'm not sure but think .32 and .32L bullets can be shot from it.

I've got a Colt 1903 in .32 ACP. It was my Paw Paw's. He got it when he became an officer in the Marine Corp.

here's the Beretta my wife's grandma is handing down to her

Those were called "Officers' Guns." My sister-in-law's father, retired as a general, had one.
The .32 ACP (used in semi-automatics) is different from the .32 Long or the .32 Magnum (both of which are revolver cartridges).
Of --- and it's a really wimpy cartridge.
