actually the 32-20 calibre was found in both rifles and hanguns.it was a popular idea to carry a rifle and handgun in the same caliber,due to one person being able to use ammunition in both firearms and not have to carry extra weight and 2 types of ammo in the late 19th century and early 20th while on horse back.it was also cheaper for the farmer or cowboy to use.
