A Pair of Masterpieces.

[CajunBass]

Here's a couple I've tripped over the last few weeks.



Top on is a 1955, K-38 Masterpiece. Somewhat finish challenged, but the mechanicals check out tight. Very nice trigger.

The bottom one is a 1948, K-22. That is in very nice condition, and came with the blue/gold box with matching S/N written on the bottom.

I haven't fired the 38 at all yet, and have only plinked a few rounds with the 22, but I hope to get them out to the range in a couple of days.

Nice. I have the same pair from the early 50s. Both are good shooters. Enjoy.

 

[Panzerschwein]

Those are beautiful gun!

Good job!

 

[BYJO4]

Very nice pair of Smiths.

Wish I could trip over vintage Smiths like that! Nice find on both of those classics.

Beautiful! My K-38 has a standard trigger and T-grip. I love shooting it DA.

While I might still contest your standing for using Cajun in your screen-name, I darn sure can't contest your taste in DA revolvers!

As I am not a devotee of safe queens, your catch seems about perfect! What a sweet score in the span of a few weeks!

Congrats!

P.S. I hope the jealousy doesn't show TOO much.

Very nice. I particularly like the term 'somewhat finish challenged'. I think I'll use that sometime.

While I might still contest your standing for using Cajun in your screen-name,

Came by it honestly. Back when I first started online I was looking around for a handle, and my eyes fell on the "Cajun" bass boat in the driveway.

The boat is long gone, but the name remains.

P.S. I hope the jealousy doesn't show TOO much

Naw...it's just a little green...

Now, all you need to round out the collection is a nice K-32. You have to look hard and dig deep to get one of those babies.

Nice pair.
Not much better than the double action on a "broke in", 5 screw, "K" frame.

 

[Wil Terry]

VERY NICE !! Yessiiree ! I too have both of those K-frame pistols plus the K32 to go with 'em. They are in a league all of their own.

A lovely pair anyone would be proud to own!
