There is purported to be less than 50 of these. I believe the number is actually 42. They were special ordered. They were then shipped to the new owners. Then, they were shipped back to the factory. They sat on the shelf at the factory for about two years. Then they were all sold through one sporting goods outfit.
It will be interesting to see if S&W gears up for this model ever again.
I know that I cherish the ones I have and they are the absolute, to me, the best design for a .22 that Smith made. It covers all the bases. Good weight, adjustable sights, non-full lug, ten shots, and, ALL stainless. And, if you think the internal lock is a joysucker for this .22, then you ain't never gonna be completely happy.
Great working man's gun.
enjoy,

Mr Green you're making me jealous! I have mtn guns in 357/44 mag/45 acp & 45 LC. Passed on the 41 since I don't do 41. Smith was sneaky with the 617 mtn gun and all were gone before I could get one.
