Store your leather with lots of silica gel pacs, and check them often for verigitis (the green stuff) near the metal.

My brother went in at 17 in 1972. He signed up for 4 years, then found out everyone was in for 2. He's got lots of stories re guys not qualifying and getting it from the DI. He was a skinny 6' 2''...
Nice looking k-22. I saw one at a dealer in CA about 6 years ago, and it was in 99 % condition. In CA it had to be at least 50 years old to be sold, so I knew it was hard to find. I paid 700 for it,...
My brother went through boot camp in the fall of 1972, he says he was one of the last classes to qualify on the M-14. Does anyone know when the USMC stopped using the M-14 in boot camp?
Thank you guys for the info. Since I don't see model 17 on the gun anywhere, I'm thinking they may have not marked it since according to the serial numbers mentioned above, it was made in early 1958....
Grips are the same as the serial number, when I open the cylinder, there is a 3 with a circle around it and a letter J, under that is the number 3906, with a capital letter A. The same number, but...
Hello, can any of you help me date my k-22? Serial # K 3258xx I have heard that after 1957 the model number (17) is stamped somewhere on the gun? What is a transitional gun? Any idea on value at 95%...

That's a beautiful 22, how does it shoot? Compared to others ? Love my k22, would love to try that one out at the range.
Looks good too me
Looks a little too " new" in my opinion.
John is right, it is the standard holster for the S and W Victory 4 inch .38 special. These were not marked and they show up quite often on the auction sites and go for in the 40 - 50 dollar range. ...
I bought a fixed bail early original WWII helmet and a decent liner, with the sweatband, lightly used off of Ebay a few years ago for about 200 dollars. Go to Ebay, they usually sell for way over 200...
You got a great buy. One thing I've noticed about Ebay is that holster prices are down almost 50% on these WWII items, and there are a lot more for sale. A few years ago you had a hard time finding a...
When I was a little kid my dad used to make breakfast on Sunday after me and my brother got home from our paper routes. My dad was an old guy when he went into WWIi and was 50 when I was born. During...
