Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced by Smith & Wesson in 1987, the Model 422 was engineered as an innovative, lightweight alternative to traditional steel-framed .22 LR target handguns. Built w/ an aircraft-grade aluminum alloy frame and a unique low-bore axis barrel positioned underneath the slide recoil assembly, the 422 achieved remarkably flat recoil impulse, superior pointability, and exceptional target accuracy. Discontinued in 1996, the Model 422 retains an enduring enthusiast following for its reliable cycle mechanics, comfortable ergonomics, and lightweight target design.
This specific example is an authentic American-manufactured Smith & Wesson Model 422 bearing serial number UAH0780. Chambered in economical .22 Long Rifle, it features the desirable 6-inch barrel configuration, factory matte blue finish, high-visibility orange-accented front ramp sight, frame thumb safety, and factory one-piece black target grips. Displaying clean matte finishes, a mirror-bright bore w/ sharp rifling, and crisp single-action mechanics, this Model 422 comes complete w/ 1 factory S&W 10-round steel magazine. A fantastic target plinker or addition to any rimfire or Smith & Wesson collection.
