K-22s have been much in demand in recent months. The gun alone is probably a $600-650 item, and the box adds another $100 or so. I have seen them offered above $800, but I don't know if they all sell at those prices.

Even though all 5-screw K-22s are in demand, the ones with lower serial numbers (K and four digits, or the lower five digit range) can be more expensive because of some prewar features that survive into early postwar production. A 5-screw gun in the 1950-56 range like the one you are looking at represents your best opportunity to get a classic .22 at a comparatively reasonable price.
