Wife and I stopped by the LGS yesterday to spread our charm and Christmas wishes around. Just visiting of course, I'm not buying anymore guns. Anyone else ever said that?
I looked into the used revolver case, out of habit, and noticed something different. I couldn't read the tag, so I asked to see it. It turned out to be a five screw K-22, (22 LR) six inch barrel, diamond Magna stocks (number to the gun), the normal stuff you'd expect to see. A little freckling here and there, but nothing a little oil, a rag and a light application of elbow grease won't take care of I don't think. Bore and charge holes look good. The stock screw was a little boogered up, but the rest looked good. The stocks themselves were not beat up. I didn't dry fire it, but working the action felt smooth as silk. No box or papers.
Whipping out my SCSW4 on my phone, I checked the S/N K123XXX, which as best I can tell, someone who knows more can correct me, makes it 1946?
I don't have a 22 handgun. I had been thinking I might buy one of those Phoenix HP22's just for grins and giggles, but I think I might like this one better. I asked if they could do anything for me on the price, frankly not expecting anything a week before Christmas. They did me a little better.
I stuck it on hold for a few days to "think about it." Yea, right. Think about it.
