K-22 Outdoorsman? Please help.
Guys
Please help me identify this. I believe it is a K-22 Outdoorsman. I've asked the guy to send me better pics of the top strap and rear sight. But just looking at the sight from the side and the hammer profile, I believe this to be an Outdoorsman. Am I right?
Also, I know it's tough with only the one pic, but where do you think this fits in the condition range, ballpark?
Thanks.
JP

I think you nailed it. Doesn't look to be refinished, but tough to tell in any photo.

That's a K-22 Outdoorsman alright. Don't know on the percentage - 90% plus? Looks like a nice revolver.

Hard to see high edge wear in a flash photo, but I'd agree that is at least a 90% gun. The turn ring seems very light, which is good. Lots of micro-scratches are revealed in the harsh light, but they might go away with some TLC. That could be a 95-96% gun, but it's hard to say that firmly based on this one overlit photo.
Worth buying, I think, if it is available. These prewar K-22s are great shooters.

I'll add my two cents...The grip appears to be in excellent condition. Hope the other side is as nice. If the price sounds right to you, snag it before someone else does.
