Always though one would be nice to have. Should be able to easily have a 12 shot cylinder. Round butt would be nice, 5 or 6.5". Oh and no idiot lock either.


I know I am dreaming.

I'd like to add that if they were to make one of those leave off the flutes on the cyinder. 10 flutes look bad enough twelve wouldn't be better. An unfluted cylinder please.

+1 for the unfluted cyllinder, but my 617 10 shooter with 6" Bbl. is 45 oz. I can't imagine hefting around an N-frame 50 plus oz.
handgun in .22 LR.

Back to the unfluted cylinder, I want one for a full engraved wildlife/folliage scen

I held off buying a 10 shot K frame because I didn't like all the flutes. When I spotted one with only 6 flutes and 10 chambers I knew it had to have been accidently made just for me! Big GrinBig Grin

In terms of useability, I like LOTS of flutes. Every flute tells my fingers where the chamber is...and where to push the round WITHOUT LOOKING. They also add a visual index that is useful when holding the gun in your peripheral vision.

This is very important for tac-ti-cool training.

The unfluted cylinders look good, but make it hard to reload using a peripheral view.
