Smith & Wesson Model 17

The Smith and Wesson Model 17 is a six shot double action revolver chambered for .22 LR.

Design
Built on the medium "K" frame, it has adjustable sights and is very similar to its predecessor, the S&W K-22, differing only in minor details. The Model 17 is capable of shooting 1.5" groups at 50 yards.

Present State
The Model 17 was discontinued, but in 2009 was reintroduced as the Model 17 Masterpiece. The original Model 17 is also survived by Smith & Wesson's stainless steel Model 617, which is chambered for six or ten rounds and features 4" or 6" full underlug barrel.
