S&W .22 LR ctg identification help

Hi,

You can use any .22 ammo to check the sights, it will be quite accurate with all of them. As with most .22 revolvers, however, you will find that your particular gun will have a preference and shoot its best with some brands, a little better than others. So try at least 3 or 4 different brands.

Mine like Federal and CCI .22 Long Rifle. Or just use the least expensive, it will do very well. Keep the chambers clean for ease of cartridge insertion.

Thank you very much for the great info :)

Wow, thanks for the information man. What kind of prices would you think it'd go for? It's in pretty good shape. He bought it because it reminded him of his sidearm in WW2.Not exactly the same, but similar. Someone said that this new grip is a pretty nice grip.
I'm new to this so what exactly is the point of cocking the hammer or just firing without cocking? I must sounded pretty stupid. Also, the guy before you said to pop out the other side before removing the screw...I really don't understand what that means or how to do it without messing it up. This gun has some history to it. Pretty interesting from what I remember when I was a kid. Thanks for any more info you might provide.
The point of cocking the hammer will make the trigger much lighter than double action (pulling the trigger with the hammer down)
