I just purchased a K22-18 4" in very good condition, I'd say 90%+ and decided to shoot it. I wavered over making it a safe queen or a shooter. I took the middle road, a well cared for shooter. I won't carry it in a holster or beat it around to protect the finish as much as possible. But I am 63 years old and having this chance to shoot a classic revolver may never come again. I too have a Model 15 .38 4" which is almost identical to the K22 so it gives me the same thrill with less cost and recoil to shoot the K22. My humble opinion is to enjoy your treasure as well as cherish it. You have a wonderful revolver there. I personally would not sell it until I could no longer lift it to shoot it. Or pass it on to your family. Congrats.
