Same here. Ruger and older pre-IL Smith & Wessons have gotten all my revolver business. It's crazy that S&W doesn't care about all the business they are losing.
I am struggling hard right now with the notion of buying a brand new 6" Model 17 Classic since I've had such a ridiculous hard time finding the right K-22 Masterpiece in used/pre-IL... but I just can't bring myself to do it.
I will very likely end up with a 6" Ruger GP100 .22 instead.
