Clearly I made a mistake in my earlier post when I showed up in a picture thread with nothing to offer but words. So let me fill in the blanks.
K-22 Outdoorsman (1934) / K-22 Masterpiece (1948) / K-22 Masterpiece (1953)
After that picture was taken I picked up this early postwar Masterpiece (1947) that still has the large ejector knob
And I also have some southpaw Roper stocks that move from gun to gun as I try out different configurations. Here they are on the 1953 .22.
I'm a piker compared to some of you; I've got to get me some more of these. Or maybe my family just needs to get me an intervention.
S&W .22s
are great guns.
