Just picked up a S&W model 48 Classic .22 magnum.

Very nice.

Nice gun and nicely figured grips to boot.

It has always annoyed me that a 'K' frame does not fit my hand. Had a 4" M19(exactly the same as your M48 in .357) with a trigger job that never quite fit my hand no matter what I did. sniff.

Very nice, i have always wanted one of those.

I’ve always been an N-frame guy, until I bought a Model 14-3 a number of years ago. Wow was I impressed, so accurate, and light and balanced so nicely. I fell in love with the K-frame. I’ve since added a Model 15 and a Model 67 and the 67 is my gold standard for revolvers. But, if I really want to look good at the range, I’ll dig out the 14 and some wadcutters and look like a much better shot than I really am.

Added plus, at least where I live, there is a lot of 22 mag on the shelves.

tulsamal · October 2, 2020, 08:25 PM

So that’s a current production?

I have a 6.5” M48 made in the 70’s. Pretty gun... I love collecting K-22’s so I couldn’t resist picking up one of the WMRF models.

My daughter's first center fire Smith was a 1952 model 14. It is smooth as silk and so very accurate.

Yeah...just cannot find any K frame grips to fit one's hand. https://www.etsy.com/market/k_frame_grips

Very nice!

Couple of weeks ago I picked up the 6" version. Haven't been able to make it to the range yet, but looking forward to it.

That was my complaint until I put a Tyler T-grip on my k-frames. That made all the difference.
