No need to shout! If you don't know Internet etiquette it is generally accepted that all caps is shouting or yelling.
That being said, welcome to the forum, there are a good bunch of folks here. Most people add a general description of where they are from in their profile so that their location will show up under their name with all their posts. We are not looking for a street address but State, County, or City is nice. To add this click on 'User Control Panel' in the top right corner of the screen and then click on profile in the left hand menu. Fill in the necessary information. Afterwards click on submit (I think).

Plenty of info on the 'Net -- Google frank wesson 32 rifle and see what comes up.
IIRC (it was 40+ years ago), a friend had one in either .22 RF or .32 RF, and found it a pretty nice little gun -- sort of an American version of a European "parlor rifle".

Bartech: Sorry this is so late, but I don't check this topic often.
There is an entire 7 page chapter devoted to F. Wesson Rifles in the book, 'Single Shot Rifles' by James J. Grant, William Morrow and Company, 1947, no LCCC no or ISBN number.
There is a copy of this as well as the 'More Single Shot Rifles, by Grant on Amazon.

It may not be what you need and it is pricey, but there is info out there.
