Default A lesser grail achieved! Retro Kit Gun goodness

Greetings all,

I have become a big admirer of the i-frames in the last few years and had really been wanting a shooter grade Kit Gun. Just happened to stop my friends pawn shop and guess what I found....





The finish is worn which is a plus because it will get used not left put up in a silicon rug. Timing and lockup are dead on and the bore looks good. Coudn't be happier!

Regards,
Danny

That's too small to be a grail... more like a shot glass!

Nice find. I know you will enjoy it.

That photo is reminiscent of one I found very similar except for the square butt and mine isn't as nicely finished but it likes to ride in my holster while we stroll along the river bank. I believe these types of .22 LR shooters already know the ropes, they just need a minimum guidance for you to really enjoy them for what they were meant to be instead of safe space occupiers. Yep, they are my favorite.
