Hi All, Going to see if I can get a letter of authenticity for my 32 Long CTG. One of the questions asked if the grip is round or square. Can anyone tell me based on this photo?

Looks like a square butt to me.

That's what I was thinking but wanted to get another opinion. Thanks.

One of the questions asked if the grip is round or square.

Irrelevant question anyway, like some of the others--how many other Reg Police models would have the same ser. no.?

Steven, what Adirondacker is saying is your gun is a .32 Regulation Police revolver with a serial number around 400,000 (mid-1920s). The SN is stamped on the front of the grip frame because the rebated (round and notched) frame is 3/4 enclosed inside the grips. The grips are a type of round to square butt grip adapter. Square butt is the correct technical term. The barrel is 4-1/4".

RP's are a square butt grip on a round butt frame.
So the answer is "yes".

Very true.

Thanks Guy. I sent pictures with it anyway.

Now that's how I should have answered it.
