Finally got one I wanted
 

Finally found a S&W 22 revolver. I was looking for a Smith 17 but settled for a 617 10 shot revolver. Course I had to take a couple others to get the one..but I did finally get one. Not bad price either...The others are a different story...for another time;) :D

I always take some pleasure in a friend finding a firearm he's been looking for. Very satisfying.

My first real handgun is a S&W 17-2. Still own it and shoot it. Bought it in about 1978. It would be my last hand gun if I had to get rid of them. One of my son in laws is waiting for me to die. He thinks he will inhert it.

I have two, a Model 63 and a Model 34. By far, the one I love the most is the SS 4 inch barrel.
