Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 651, also known as the .22 M.R.F. Target Kit Gun Stainless, is a double/single-action revolver chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire, built on the stainless steel J-frame with square-butt and three-screw construction. It was offered with a 4-inch barrel and configured as the target sight variant of the Model 650, emphasizing precision and practical field performance. Standard features include a 1/10-inch red ramp front sight paired with a black adjustable rear sight, allowing for refined sight alignment and adjustment, along with a six-shot fluted cylinder measuring approximately 1.44 inches in length. The revolver is fitted with checkered walnut Magna-style service grips bearing Smith & Wesson medallions, a .375-inch semi-target hammer, and a .312-inch smooth combat trigger, providing a balance of control and consistent operation. Barrel markings read “.22 M.R.F. CTG,” accompanied by a small S&W trademark on the left side of the frame. Early production examples were also offered with an auxiliary .22 Long Rifle cylinder, increasing versatility across ammunition types.

Initial production saw the first 902 revolvers bearing an “R” serial prefix. Production occurred in two distinct runs, from 1983 to 1988 and from 1991 to 1999. The Model 651 represents Smith & Wesson’s development of a stainless steel rimfire target revolver, combining compact dimensions, corrosion-resistant construction, and adjustable sighting capability with magnum chambering for target shooting, small game hunting, and general field use.
