I think those K-38 specimens SmithNut knows the whereabouts of have taken root there.

One of my faves...14-3 special order I got lucky and found for sale at AA...nickel 8 3/8 incher with gold bead front sight and W/O rear.

Never thought I'd ever hear myself say this, having been a N-Frame bigot for most of shooting life... Love them K-Frames!!

Nice to see atleast one tappered barrel early K38!! whats the serial range on yours? Mine is K27XXX. Any idea how many were made with the tappered barrel before the switched to the bull barrel?

SmithNut??

My only K-38 Masterpiece had 2" lopped off the barrel. It was advertised as a pre-15, when it's really a pre 14. Need to find one intact, and some period stocks for this one.

 

[Targets Guy]

I love these revivals.

As long as we are giving this thread CPR I toss my two cents in..
4/17/59 ship date Mdl 14 no dash, 4 screw frame. Letters as a 5", TT. TH, TS, Baughman front sight.
Still have not shot it. Need to get that done one of these next days.

 

[JohnRippert]

Recent acquisition

Took the Sandersons off to clean them up and put a set of period correct magnas on for a while.

 

[Narragansett]

Well, I do not have a stand alone pic, but the one on top is a 1950 K38

1952 K-38

 

[Keith Brown]

K-38s, the best target revolver ever created ! Have had at least one since 1977. These are a few of mine currently.

The last one is my only one-liner and has a modified hammer, liked the way it looked and got it for a fair price off gunbroker.
