Default Need Identification

Bought this little 22 today and can't identify it. The serial # is 4279XX and on top of the barrel it says Patented Feb 6.06 Sept 14.9 Dec 29.14. Any help appreciated!

4279xx indicates that it's a "Heavy Frame" .22/32 Target revolver which probably shipped around late 1925.

425650 shipped in October, 1925. Just a data point to consider.
