Nagaraj,

It would be better if you could post some pictures. Members would then be better placed to give you an idea of the price you could pay for it.

erma never made revolvers in steel body. i hv seen few gunsmiths making steel body for erma and it works better than original (alloy) ones.you may get it between 2.50 - 2.75.Regards Ravi

Erma produced many types/models of firearms. Erma seems to have infringed on the S&W pattern J frame. They produced the solid-frame, left side-opening models using transfer bar safeties in the 70s. The ER432 is in .32 S&W long caliber.

You can test the frame with a magnet :) if you like. Most probably it will be alloy, it sometimes feels heavy as steel as in case of Arminius.

The quality is not so good, neither is the reputation. My bit of advice would be to go for something more "dependable". As far as the cost goes , in this insane firearm market it can be anything really . Till a year back it was around 85K to 1 L or so. Now it would be anything between 1L to 1.5L ???

best,

RP.

Erma does not make any steel frame revolver it is changed as the body breaks due to alloy metal
