Non-relieved diamond targets on a K22

[snowman]

I've been watching an auction of a M17, 1959 vintage, that comes with a nice pair of stocks fitting the above description. I'm wondering if the gun came with them or not, and I don't yet have a SCSW. Anyone have an answer off the top of their head(or at their fingertips)?

Thank you.
Andy



P.S. I guess I should have run a search for like threads, but I've not yet been successful in a number of such attempts here.

I have more than one like you describe which came with non-relieved diamond targets. More than likely,they are original to that gun as well.

If it's the one marked "1959 Full Target" I believe it's original.
I'm not in on it, got it on the watch list though.


$150 of the price are the grips, I think it'll go north of 8.

Thanks, fellas.

GF: That's the one, and I think your price projection is correct. I'd like to have it, but unemployment is putting it out of reach.

It appears to me that there are no marks at all at the top of the left panel where empties typically land when ejected. I wonder how much the thing has been fired.

Andy,
It's a goodnews/bad news situation. The good news is that the non-relieved stocks are worth more than the relieved versions. The bad news is that I think '59 is a little late for them.
Good shooting.

The non-relieved Target stocks were made from 1950 to about 1953, give or take when they officially ran out of stock.
