At one time had both a K22 and a K38 Masterpiece, sold them both (sob), been sorry ever since. I was trapping then and both were blued and I was afraid to get them wet, wanted something in stainless. Since then my trapping/misc pistol has been a stainless Smith 4" Kit Gun in .22LR, and it's not going anywhere! The S&W K22, K38, and .22LR Kit Gun are IMHO three of the best classic revolvers ever built.
