Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 18-2, known as the K-22 Combat Masterpiece, is a highly respected .22 Long Rifle revolver that combines the accuracy of a target handgun with the handling characteristics of a service revolver. Built on the versatile K-frame, it was designed as a training counterpart to centerfire models such as the Model 15, offering identical ergonomics with significantly lower recoil and operating cost. Its 4" pinned barrel, ramped blade front sight, and fully adjustable rear sight provide excellent precision, making it well-suited for target shooting, plinking, and small-game use. The deep blue finish and clean profile reflect Smith & Wesson’s craftsmanship during this era, while the revolver’s weight and balance contribute to its smooth, controllable performance.

This example is equipped with checkered double-diamond walnut grips, adding both a secure hold and a touch of classic S&W styling. The double-action system allows for quick follow-up shots, while the crisp single-action trigger pull enhances deliberate accuracy. As part of a long-established lineage of refined rimfire revolvers, the Model 18-2 remains popular with collectors and shooters for its blend of durability, shootability, and historical significance. Its combination of practical design, training value, and traditional craftsmanship continues to make it one of the most admired rimfire wheel guns of its time.
