what are some of the better ones out there but are affordable on a poor man's budget?

Ya got that right and as far as new, this is about the only thing available. Now on used, there are still quite a few around but you have to hunt them down. TC Cherokee comes to mind but again, they are not cheap. You did not state Traditional or In-Line. TC use to make a System-1 in .32. Check out Pedersoli and see what they are listing. ....Better and affordable don't really go together. Cabela's has the Traditions Crockett on sale for 469.00
I'd like to have a .32 for shooting squirrels and targets, but we couldn't use it for deer here. Only .40 or larger.
This has been my experience as well. Started out hunting squirrels with one of my .50's than went to a .32 and eventully settled in with my .36. .....Compared to the .32, the .36 was MUCH easier to patch/load, just as accurate, and more importantly, carried the ball further with accuracy.
Far be it for me to tell you how to spend your money but unless you have actually worked with a .32 SideCocker, might I suggest you do so. I'd just hate for you to be disappointed in it's performance. I had one and eventually sold it as I really prefer and enjoy my .36. Again, it's entirely you call. ....what are some of the better ones out there but are affordable on a poop man's budget?
