Why? Because I think it would be neat. I love break-tops and have been thinking about getting into .32 and why not seven rounds? It'd be different.

My Google-fu is weak and I can't seem to find one.

Lots of break-tops, lots of .32 SW Long revos and Charter does have a modern seven-shot swing-out cylinder in .32 H&R Mag which, of course, includes .32 SWL but no seven-shooters in a break-top configuration that I can find.

Thanks in advance!

If anyone did I would think Iver Johnson. I met a guy years ago that collected .32 breaktops I'll see if I can dig up his contact info.

I've never heard of one, but there were a lot of companies that made breaktops that I've never heard of...

Make it 8 shot,  in .327 Fed. Mag (can take all the weaker .32's) optional moon clips, and fires from the bottom of the cylinder like a Chiappa Rhino... and I'd be interested.
I promise not to duck.

Maybe H&R? I think they made some top-breaks back in the day.

A ton of them.  I remember seeing H&R catalogs in the 70s or 80s, toward the end for the company.
