Am I lost or something?

[YeshuaIsa53]

This little guy followed me home yesterday.

This little guy is lonely for a screwdriver, I think, and whatever tools it may have lost over the years.

All of a sudden, several Model 14s felt overwhelmed.

Maybe I am lost or something, or in the wrong crowd maybe? I sure don't feel I deserve this, but it has brought happiness and at least a moment or two of thanksgiving to anyone that may have been involved. I would rate it a solid 99.9% gun. One can even read a couple of matching penciled numbers on the little tag on the bottom of the box. Why has someone been so kind to me? Good night .

Wow,
That is a great looking early K-22. I'd love to find one in that condition (that I could afford!)

Congratulations, Bud, that's a beautiful buy! "I once was lost but now I'm found" -- that kind of a find.

Bud,
You have become confused- let me send you a good 14-1 for that anomaly. I am here to help you get this straightened out.

Nice gun! That brochure is quite a find in itself.

 

[FRBowers]

That is pretty close to the definition of NIB. Very nice pre war quality!

I think i,m going to be sick.

 

[fat tom]

Never dated one so old.
Can someone help me or is a letter in store?

 

[glypnir]

How can you even ask?

At least let that poor lonely little ole pistol know its ancestry. Of course get a letter.

Holy cow. I keep whistlening and patting my leg and nothing like that has followed me home. Congrats!

 

[Cooter Brown]

Yikes. That's something. Even the case colors are just outstanding! Congrats.

That is just stunning. Wish I had it.

Very nice addition to any collection. Thanks for sharing. The more I see and handle the pre war guns, the more I fall in love with them. I hope to find a nice specimen of a pre war K22 someday. I only have the screwdriver for now.

To get you a bit closer, maybe, 6589XX shipped Nov. 18, 1936. That is a beautiful example of a great gun.

If I may ask,,what is a 'little guy' like that worth?? These types of deals elude most of us,,and if confronted with the possibility I might offer $1200 or $1500 for such a perfect outdoorsman.
Imagine being 70 years old and still looking like the day you were born.
Congratulations, MeAmMe Good luck on the next one,,Al
