If you are more into shooting than collecting I would consider putting her up for sale and buy a K-22 in 4", another in 6" and another in 8 3/8" with enough left over for a J frame 22 as well....
I would be afraid of accidentally bulging the barrel or breaking the hammer and finding out no replacements are available turning a $3k gun into $300 in parts ... ..But thats my paranoia talking

Yep, that's a good Point. I don't plan on making this a regular shooter, but I do want to shoot it to satisfy my desire to do so.
Eventually,I will end up with period correct grips, a letter from Roy maybe even a period correct box and a 1940's sales brochure. The hunt will become part of the fun and challenge I suppose.
