Finally figured out how to get pictures resized.. A 1916 S&W 22/32 Heavy Frame Target. Bit of a misnomer, it's an I frame even smaller than a J frame..

That should make it a Bekaert, very cool.

It might be from the second series of Bekaert's, I would have to get a letter. It's all matching even the grips. For now it just goes to the range and gets shot, very accurate as well.
Cool pistol!!

I should be embarrassed here but how do you resize your photos ? Sorry for taking up valuable space with such but.

It came from an estate, advertised as an old S&W 22. Asked for pictures and knew what it was right away. Quite a bit of honest wear, but still for 102 it is doing very well. The family was originally from the Bay Area, so it might indeed be a "real" Bekaert as that is where Bekaert's shop was located.

I have windows 10, and the photo editor and paint don't resize well, I downloaded a free Photo editor (Polarr) from the Windows store. It seems to work well.

Mine is crazy accurate with Aguila Pistol Match.

Local shop has one tagged at $1200 that looks just like EdM's. May have to start negotiations...
