I have the 17-1 K22 that my father bought from a coworker in around 1970 for $25. The SN K4265xx seems to indicate manufacture in late 1960.
It has original diamond magna grips numbered to the gun, the original box with SN in white grease (box damaged a little), paper wrap, a set of stag grips, and a hunter holster and gunbelt that has .22 LR. The gun is in very nice condition with normal signs of light use: turn lines, and slight wear on the sides of the barrel near the muzzle. I can't believe that it survived my teenage years looking so nice.
I don't want to sell my father's K22. But none of my kids/nieces/nephews are into guns, and I was inspired by recent comments from rct269 about leaving money rather than guns.
So I'm looking through GB for comparables, and out of about 216 K22s and M17s listed, I don't see a single 17-1. Looking in SCSW4 I see that 17-1s are scarce and carry a 25%-50% premium. What's a fair price to ask for it?
