About 6 months ago, I noticed a pretty cool revolver on a table at a gunshow. It was a K-22, circa 1953 (I think), 5 screw, in prettygood/OK condition. Guy wanted $489 for it, and I passed.
I've been ogling K-22s ever since, looking for a clean one at a reasonable price. Two weeks ago, while visiting my dad in Central NY, stopped in local shop........
After mail time, for FFL, etc, baby came home this afternoon.
It is in excellent/mint condition with very faint turn marks. Beautiful deep/rich blue. Original box, wax paper, manual, and price tag. It's not a 5 screw, but rather a K-22 Masterpiece, model 17-4 (3 screw?) with a 8 3/8" barrell. Delivered into my hands for a total of $340.
I think I did well on the deal.
Only thing I'm interested in changing is the grips. It is wearing a set of large wooden target grips, and I've got small paws. I've seen some of these guns with smaller grips that had a diamond in the center of the grip screw area. Will these fit my gun? What are they called? Where can I get them? Also, what frame do I have, J? K? whatever?
Thanks!
