Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 617 revolver in .22 LR caliber is based upon the previous model 17, improved by using stainless steel instead of the standard blued carbon steel. It is built on a K (medium frame) – square butt, first introduced in 1899 with the .38 Military & Police revolver.
The 617 Smith & Wesson revolver has a 4 or 6-inch barrel; the 8 3/8-inch version is no longer listed. The .22 LR caliber Smith & Wesson Model 617 is based on a stainless steel K frame with an external hammer. The side plate is held together with three screws. The revolver has a single and a double action trigger. The full barrel lug contributes to the gun’s hefty look. The steel used for this gun has a satin finish that can easily withstand rough handling. Like in all recent Smith & Wesson revolvers, the firing pin is in the frame. The hammer has a noticeable checkering, which allows a rather firm grip.
Another great feature is the latest generation cylinder release control, introduced in 1996 on these revolvers, whose shape is more ergonomic than in the previous designs. The 617, just like all other models produced by this historical American brand, has an automatic safety called Hammer Block that prevents contact between the hammer and the firing pin until the trigger is fully pulled.
