I have a chance to pick up a 1955 vintage K22 from a friend. For it's age it is in pretty good shape with just a bit of bluing wear near the muzzle. The question is, would it be worth $350.00? I shot it tonight in the basement @ about 10yds, and almost had a one hole group. It shoots good. Any one have any experience with the k22?

I picked one up in a trade this past spring after wanting one for many years. It is without a doubt the BEST 22 handgun I have now or have ever had. If I had a chance for one at that price I would not be asking about it, I would be posting pictures. They normally sell for a lot more than that.

I have 2 now and have had a total of 4 (all 17's)-- most I have paid was $400 with wood hogues in perfect shape least was $210--so $350 sounds about right

Great guns I love mine

Wonderful gun! I would grab it quick.
The only accuracy limit for it will be the ammo used, sadly some is not as good as it used to be.

If you don't buy it then you may want to consult me about my budget psychiatric services.

Admitting you have a problem is the first step.

I have pics over on the Bragging Broard. I'm still in the last century, and can't figure out how to get them on here.
