How to get the system to accept the correct name of a firearm
I have a S&W Police Positive in .32 Police to sell, but the system claims that that is not a valid model or caliber. I don't know who created the database, but clearly they have missed this one. So, how do I get the system to accept my nomenclature? I've sent a request, but my past experience is that I will not hear from anyone soon, if ever.

Correction. I meant it is a Colt Police Positive.🙃

S&W's are not my major interest, but I do know Colt made a Police Positive. Maybe the system is correct?

This comes up quite often:

I reckon it's a work in progress.

You are overthinking this.
Pretend that you are a buyer; search GB for the type gun you want to sell. If you search for "Colt", you will get thousands of possibles. Then, narrow your search by looking for "Colt Police Positive", & most of the results will be pretty close to what you are selling. So, the category you use for your listing really doesn't matter; folks using a search for a complete gun don't care.
Now, if you were to list grips for a Colt Police Positive, the category would be really important, because no one wants to get search results for a complete firearm when they need only 1 part.
