Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 17 is a classic, target-oriented K-frame .22 Long Rifle revolver prized for its superb handling, refined trigger, and accuracy — it reads like a tuned precision instrument rather than a casual pocket gun. Built on S&W’s time-tested medium K-frame, the Model 17 carries a six-shot cylinder and was offered in a variety of barrel lengths (commonly 4" and 6") with heavy, target-profile barrels that give the pistol a steady, forward balance and an extended sight radius for fine aiming. Its controls and ergonomics are tailored for deliberate shooting: a crisp, light single-action break with a clean reset when properly tuned, a smooth double-action pull for practical use, and dovetailed, fully adjustable target sights (micrometer or notch-and-blade styles on many examples) that let competitive shooters dial in point of impact precisely. Fit and finish are characteristically good — blued or sometimes nickel finishes with checkered walnut target grips — and the Model 17’s tight lockup, precise timing, and match-grade barrel/crown produce the kind of inherent accuracy that made it a favorite for bullseye competition, small-bore silhouette, and as an economical trainer to teach sighting and trigger control that transfer directly to centerfire service revolvers. Robust yet eminently tunable, the Model 17 occupies a sweet spot: heavy enough to tame .22 recoil for rock-steady follow-ups, balanced for stable aim, and refined enough in its internals and trigger geometry to reward careful shooters — which is why it remains sought after by collectors, serious target shooters, and anyone who appreciates a mechanically pure rimfire revolver.
