Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 17 is a double-/single-action revolver chambered in .22 Long Rifle and built on Smith & Wesson’s square-butt K-frame target platform. The model traces its origins to the renowned K-22 Masterpiece, introduced before Smith & Wesson adopted model numbers in 1957, and it quickly earned a reputation for exceptional accuracy and balance as a training and competition revolver. Early postwar examples feature the classic five-screw frame with a hammer-block safety, along with a six-shot fluted, counterbored cylinder and a deep blued finish; factory nickel examples are known but remain uncommon. The standard configuration included a pinned, ribbed 6-inch barrel, though less common 5-inch and longer 8 3/8-inch barrel variants were also offered during production. Sighting equipment typically consisted of a Patridge front sight paired with an adjustable micrometer-click rear sight, allowing for precise elevation and windage adjustments. Factory grip options commonly included walnut Magna-style stocks with Smith & Wesson medallions and diamond escutcheons.

Factory grip options commonly included walnut Magna-style stocks with Smith & Wesson medallions and diamond escutcheons.
A variety of hammer and trigger configurations were available, ranging from semi-target to full target hammers and from smooth combat triggers to serrated target triggers, sometimes fitted with an adjustable overtravel stop. Early postwar frames can be identified by six-groove checkering on the backstrap and forestrap, a feature later replaced by a ten-groove serrated pattern on subsequent production. Manufactured from circa 1946 to 1989, the Model 17 remains one of Smith & Wesson’s most respected rimfire revolvers and is still widely appreciated for its craftsmanship, accuracy, and role as a classic American target handgun.
