Very nice! The reason I looked for your video is because I recently acquired 2 of these from my recently passed away Uncles collection. Both are in like new condition fully complete with like new boxes, paperwork & cleaning kits with cleaning rod, brushes ect. One has the 8,3/8” barrel with Target grips, hammer & trigger. It’s a 17-3 from 1971. The other has an extra cylinder that shoots .22Lr that is serial numbers matched to the frame. It’s from 1962 that has the 6” barrel model 53 with a magnum.22 REM Jet cylinder that has sleeves that go in the cylinder to enable shooting.22Lr. So far I have only shot the model 53 with its.22Lr cylinder installed with my son. I ran .22 CCI CB shorts. It’s a real joy to behold, handle & shoot. Such a smooth, intuitively accurate trigger & dual position setting hammer. In the frame are two different firing pins. It’s really interesting! Thanks!
Right although I have a mint 1959 K22 with non relieved target grips given to me by an old friend some 10+ years back and I've never shot it. I"m pretty sure it's been fired before though.
@@GhostofRookie Im.not afraid to use it, just havent made it to the gun range to try it out. My small town grew up so cant shoot it here outside anymore.
