Finally got a K-22 Masterpiece !
I've been looking for a K-22 Masterpiece for awhile now and was finally able to snag one. It was made in 1970 and is a Model 17-3. I would describe it in close to ANIB condition, although, it has been shot a few times. Came with all of the box candy. Bluing is 100% and I cant find a scratch on it. The action is like glass. I took her down and cleaned and lubed everything and will be heading to the range tommorrow. Had to trade my favorite Winchester lever gun for it but, I think it will be worth it. This one will get a workout from me and my daughter! Enjoy!

Excellent catch! Glad to hear it will not be stuffed and mounted. The K-22's are the ultimate .22 LR revolver and deserve to be fired frequently.

Be warned that K22 Masterpieces are highly addictive.

I'll tell you guys one thing. This thing is addictive! We had a blast at the range. The K-22 is deadly accurate too. We must have put 200 rounds through it without any issues at all. I am so thrilled with this gun! Thanks for all of the nice compliments!

Indiuckian- there is an 18 (or pre 18) out there calling your name, saying buy me, shoot me, carry me and I will be the last k-22 you ever buy (hahahaha)
