I had been looking for a K22 for my wife for some time and came across this set K22 and K38 and they were to good to pass up.This was a presentation set given to the owners grandfather in the early 50s. I did tell him that he should keep them but I guess they didn't mean much to him--not as much as the $1000. he wanted for them. I'm reasonably certain that the nickle plate was an aftermarket job as I don't believe the factory plated the rear sights.The owner did shoot the K38 at some point and neglected to clean it--the residue was almost tarry and may have led to the nickle lifting. Other than the cylinder both guns were mint condition--the k22 showed no sign of being fired. I gave them to my wife for her 63rd birthday as she likes the nickle plated guns. I included a couple of pictures of her old freebie.
We took them out and shot them and wow the K22 is butter smooth,the best trigger I've ever shot and I thought my Model 17 was good. Dead accurate the wife was about 50% at 20 yards on a 3' "flipper" target. About 6 years ago out of the blue she said she would like to take up pistol shooting--never having held any type of firearm and is amazing at the range.Best part is if I find something to buy she says "get it, your not getting any younger"---and I do!
K22 is k24233, k38 is K13863
I'll post some more pictures as the system would only take four
