Re: S&W .22 kit DOM and HV ammo ?
Thank you all for the help ! The pistol came with a couple boxes of standard vel. ammo , that is what made me question the age / strength. My time on this rock is almost up and I am trying to make sure my wife has as much info about our firearms as I can give her.

S&W .22 kit DOM and HV ammo ?
Recently inherited a S&W 22/32 kit gun ( in .22 lr ) 4" blued , square .
Ser # is 471xx .
Is this revolver old enough to to be concerned about using modern Hi-Vel ammo in it ?
