I'll have to wait 55 years to see if you're right. I wonder if my M&P will still shoot as well by then :) All I did was clean that old revolver up a bit , it probably hadn't been fired since Hee Haw was on TV

Your welcome, it was a blast. That old revolver was sweet to shoot and it seemed happy to be in use again.

Just for fun I made a small video of range firing a new M&P22 against an old K22 Masterpiece I recently picked up and brought back to life. It makes no real conclusions or comparisons, all done in fun. Smith & Wesson Old vs New - 1957 K 22 vs M&P 22 - YouTube

Thanks to both of you for quick reply. And there are no other markings in the 'yoke' cut. I've included another photo of the back of stock/grip. They also fit down lower over the frame bottom so you have to remove them to see the ser#. But these grips feel great in hand. This is a great site, I...

I recently aquired this S&W 22lr. revolver. I believe it to be a K-22 or a Model 17 (not sure which is proper name). It has a 6 in barrel and adjustable rear sight. Under the grips on the frame is the Ser# K 299xxx The grips are not diamond cut but I do believe them to be original for the gun...
