This was my grandfather’s jackrabbit and snattlerake gun; 6” .22lr. Best I can tell via on-line browsing, it is a K-22 Outdoorsman. The SN has no prefix, so I take it is pre-war (guesstimate of early 30s production). If (when) I buy an ultrasonic cleaner, it will likely be my first project.

That looks more like a 22/33 HFT. I could be off. It definitely predates the K-22.

Thanks zipty6! Not finding any "hits" for 22/33 HFT, I assumed .22/.32 was intended. Searching for that, I finally found a perfect pistol (revolver) picture match! It's a .22/32 Target model. Made between 1923 and 1927. My revolver's SN is 444XXX, which matches this on-line listing for a .22/32:
