Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced by Smith & Wesson in 1987 and produced through 1996, the Model 422 represents one of the most uniquely engineered .22 LR rimfire handguns in modern firearms history. Designed to provide target-grade accuracy in a lightweight package, the Model 422 utilizes a fixed barrel mounted unusually low in the frame—directly aligned above the trigger guard—which dramatically lowers the bore axis and minimizes muzzle rise during rapid fire. Paired with a top-mounted slide and under-barrel recoil spring, the Model 422 achieved an outstanding reputation for natural pointability, minimal felt recoil, and match-grade target precision. Featuring an adjustable rear target sight, a matte black finish, and optional factory checkered walnut grips with gold S&W medallions, clean Model 422s with low 4.5-inch barrels remain prized centerpiece additions for Smith & Wesson rimfire collectors.
This fine collector example, serial number TBL4192, is an authentic Smith & Wesson Model 422 chambered in .22 LR. It features a 4.5-inch barrel, factory matte black/blued finish, adjustable target rear sight, and upgraded factory checkered walnut grips with gold S&W medallions. Preserved in clean, highly maintained condition throughout, with sharp frame markings, smooth mechanical cycling, and a mirror-bright bore with crisp rifling. Offered as a complete factory presentation, it includes its original serial-matching Smith & Wesson blue box, factory instruction manual, barrel thread adapter accessory, takedown tool, and (1) original 10-round factory magazine stamped "S&W". Offering unique engineering and complete original packaging, this Model 422 represents a fantastic addition for S&W purists and rimfire enthusiasts.
