The P-32 is built around a straightforward blowback action and a 2.8-inch barrel, delivering a 6+1 capacity in a micro-size package. Overall length is approximately 5.4 inches, and the unloaded weight is about 22 oz, making it a compact option for those who prefer a small .32 ACP semi-auto.
Construction is the die-cast zinc-alloy (Zamak) typical of Davis pocket pistols, with a black-finished slide and frame. Smooth brown grip panels provide a simple, low-profile hold, and the slide uses rear serrations. This model lacks an external slide stop lever, consistent with its minimalist design.
Controls include a manual safety and a heel-type magazine release, the latter being uncommon on American pocket pistols and notable for collectors and shooters familiar with European-style mag catches. Sights are fixed, with an integral front ramp and a rear notch for a durable, snag-resistant setup.
Markings are clear, with the slide stamped "DAVIS INDUSTRIES - CHINO, CA. U.S.A." on one side and "MODEL P-32 - CAL.-32 AUTO" on the other. Originating from Southern California and associated with the so-called Ring of Fire makers, the P-32 reflects a specific era and region of American handgun production. This example has matching serial on the frame.
