It was not 675.00
it was 725.00 Don't know how I screwed that up. But still a decent buy, I sprayed and wiped it down, took the grips off, they are not original to the gun, but they sure feel nice.
Trigger is excellent, is it ok to dry fire this old girl,? the firing pin is frame mounted, S# is 43XXX. I loaded some federal led 22LR rounds in the recessed chambers, they dropped in nicely, and extracted as they should. I will take some pictures in a little while if somebody wants to post them for me.

No interference between firing pin and edge of countersunk chambers. Nevertheless, it’s my practice to dry fire a .22 rimfires on cases fired in the same gun, two or three hits to the same spot before rotating case for more dry fire. David Bradshaw |

Use #6 plastic drywall screw anchors from Ace or Home Depot when you dry fire. Works great and cheap.

Well done!!
Have had quite a few K22s of all vintages over the years but when I downsized a few years ago the only one I kept was a 1951... It was later traded to a friend who was about to sell his as it was the same gun in the same condition, but was a 1952, my birth year...but I did gain a Target Hammer vs the standard one I had...
Have a great time with it...
