Thankfully my buddy dropped it off at my house so I could take the photos. The only numbers I see are on the underside of the barrel, ejector rod area and do NOT match the butt serial number. The cylinder does match the butt. The owner thinks someone may have cobbled it together from misc parts...

I also removed the grips. Whoever owned this used some type of adhesive under the grips and made a friggin mess. However, no date stamp on the left side. But there is a large X stamped into the lower right corner.

Here are some pics.

The gun is blued, not nickel The blue is worn in several areas. I have asked the owner to send me pics.

That I can do, it's the only pic I have at this time.

I did have it in my hands and did not see any U.S. Property markings anywhere. It looks very similar to a K22 that I posted photo's of a while back but in better condition. The owner has very little knowledge of Smith & Wesson revolvers (very knowledgeable about other firearms) and acquired it...

A friend recently acquired an old 38, well used with some blue loss but of unknown age. No photos yet but the serial # is SV 7763**. Seeking approximate date of manufacture and any other info that may be interesting. Thank you in advance.

I actually have it in my hand at this moment and comparing it to the above images it appears identical, with the exception of a spot of red paint added to the blade, obviously for better contrast.

Front sight pic added to original post.

Thank you all very much. This particular .22 is not mine, (yet) but a close relatives. I will get a front blade pic to post soon. I don't post much but I love reading posts here. I have greatly improved my S & W knowledge from it. ETA: Front blade pics added to original post

Looking for any info (age, value etc) that is available for an old .22 revolver. No model # on yoke. She's old and used, but still tight with that silky smooth Smith trigger. Ser. starts K18*** Any info greatly appreciated.

Is there an obstruction in the gas key itself? Sounds silly but I have seen a broken off Q tip in a gas key once.

Marlin/Glenfield 22 S/L/LR bolt action with 7 round mag. (model 25??) Still in safe. Got it when I was about 14/15...well over 40 years ago

They will last 3-5 years depending on use and storage temperature before you need to replace batteries. I have always hated the trigger on my bodyguard...

Hell, I sold my nickel 469 for $300 a couple months ago. Really nothing special.

That magnum has me drooling on my keyboard. Man that thing is beautiful!!!

I have one just as described. Was my late fathers. It is without question one of my favorite pistols. Hard to find magazines for now but I lucked out several years ago as was able to purchase 3 brand new colt mags for $50. $600 as described I would not hesitate to grab it!!

Very nice! I also acquired my first model 29 recently. The 29-5 Classic...

The "Ashland". It was my first duty weapon when I became a LEO in the late 80's. I kept mine when we switched to Glocks. I still have it to this day.

Thank you folks for the information/responses. This particular revolver was carried by a friends father when he was an officer back in the 50's. Judging by it's condition I don't think it has seen much use and the action is still smooth at silk.
