THE “K’ MASTERPIECE SERIES

The first K target model (K-22) was introduced on 12/13/1946 and sported a ribbed barrel, the new micrometer click sight, anti backlash trigger, short cocking action, six groove tangs, serrated trigger and a 1/8” or 1/10” Patridge front sight. In its advertising, Smith & Wesson emphasized the name “Masterpiece.” They believed they had introduced a true masterpiece for the competitive target shooter. On 6/09/1947 the K-32 and K14 became available. The weight of the three different caliber guns varied with the K-22 at 38 1/2oz, K-32 at 36 3/4oz and K-38 at 36oz. As a result of the requests from the target shooting community, by 04/10/1950 the weights were standardized at 38 1/2oz. (loaded). Beginning in 1957 the K-22 was assigned the designation of Model 17, the K-32 became the Model 16 and the K-38 became the Model 14. Sale of the Model 17 and 14 have always remained strong but the Model 16 was never as popular. Only 3630 K-32s were manufactured between 1947 and 1973 when it was dropped from production.

The K frame revolvers pictured above are (closest to furthest): K-38 shipped from factory in 1965, K-32 shipped 1955 and K-22 shipped 1956.

She's a little dirty from a range trip but she sure is purdy....At least to me :mrgreen: Did I say it was a 9mm? Fits with all the brothers and sisters in 9mm...the only round I have for pistols. Hehehehe. 8-)
 
Some of my S&W favorites. Model 29 and The Schofield is a Cimarron. I use speed loaders for a smith 25-5 45colt in the schofield.
 
This one was my Great Grandfathers backup .32 that he carried in his pocket while on guard duty. He was a shipping yard security during WWI in NY. He carried a sxs 12 greener. Revolver is a Meriden Arms.

 
Just put a Ruger LCR 9MM on layaway today will my LGS. Been eyeballing it for 4 or 5 months, he usually only does two months, but I was half kidding about doing a year. Today we settled on six months but it will happen sooner. We kinda have a bit of an antagonistic relationship but everything ends with a smile in the end. Dont know why the little 9 caught my eye but looking forward to taking it out.
