Vintage K22

[mec]

It was made in 1947 and has some special features that will be revealed in time:

Nice old gun. Mine is a bit newer (about 1954) and has the new type ejector rod.

Something different about the hammer Mike?

 

[mec]

original hammer/ been through the Turnbull process along with the trigger. Other oddities include the 1/10" sights and a few other things..

The Henry Bowman Special. A thing of beauty is a joy forever.

this old something like 35 oz revolver is very accurate but a bit more challenging shooting "NRA" slow fire off-hand than some of the heavier ones that came later:

What a sweet looking old K frame. It caused me to go down to the vault and break out my mid 60s vintage K22 and admire it.

This thread so inspired me I ran 500 rounds through one of my Model 17's yesterday

Since you guys know the years of manufacture of your guns, maybe you can help me with my beloved old K22, no. is K1669xx.
It came with diamond service grips and service trigger and hammer but a trigger stop.

Both my sons learned shooting with this gun and it is as accurate as any good shooter can only want it!

Thanks for your help,

Andy
