Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 17-4 is a highly respected .22 Long Rifle, K-frame double-action revolver that represents the pinnacle of Smith & Wesson’s classic target revolver tradition. Manufactured by Smith & Wesson, the Model 17 traces its lineage to the famous K-22 Masterpiece, a revolver specifically designed for precision rimfire target shooting and serious marksmanship training. The -4 engineering change, produced during the late 1970s, reflects refinements made after decades of successful production, while still retaining the traditional craftsmanship and hand-fitted feel that collectors prize. The Model 17-4 is built on the medium-size K-frame and features a six-shot cylinder, a blued carbon-steel finish, and a 6-inch barrel that provides an excellent balance between sight radius and handling. It is equipped with fully adjustable target sights, typically including a micrometer-click rear sight and a Patridge-style front blade, allowing for precise zeroing and exceptional accuracy with a wide variety of .22 LR ammunition. Renowned for its silky smooth double-action trigger and crisp single-action break, the Model 17-4 mirrors the handling and trigger feel of Smith & Wesson’s centerfire target revolvers, making it an outstanding training companion as well as a competition-capable firearm in its own right. Finished with classic checkered walnut target stocks, the Smith & Wesson Model 17-4 is widely regarded as one of the finest rimfire revolvers ever produced, valued today for its accuracy, balance, durability, and enduring place in American revolver history.
