I have grown a fondness for rimfire handguns, with the .22 Magnum being at the top of my rimfire want list. I’ve been saving and searching for a Model 48 with a 6” barrel to become a twin to my Model 17-2 6” .22LR, but finding one under $900.00 OTD was pretty much impossible.
I found one on GB with a starting bid of $650.00. I bid, no one else did, and it was mine for $675.00 with shipping. Fees and tax added another 120.00. A bit pricy, but it filled a void .
it’s a 48-4, and it came with the original box and papers and an extra set of larger manga grips. There isn’t a much of a turn line on the cylinder, the bluing is great, both sets of grips are unchipped and the trigger is really nice in both DA and SA.

I shot it recently but the ammo was garbage. I’ll post about that separately.
Stay safe.
