It all started in 1946, when John Nosler was hunting moose with a .300 H&H. He hit the beast and hit it square. However, the bullets did not penetrate the animal deeply enough to reach vital organs. This meant a long and painful death for the animal.

The .32 Smith & Wesson is a small pistol cartridge intended for use as personal protection at close range. The S&W Model 1� break-top revolver was the first platform for the cartridge. Intended for use at �card table distances,� the .32 S&W was considered the smallest cartridge acceptable for personal protection in its time. It fit the bill for being a gentleman�s vest gun � a small handgun for the vest pocket that was especially popular in the late 19th century and early 20th century. It was later surpassed by the .32 ACP. The .32 S&W may also be referred to as the .32 S&W Short.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. � Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
