Default Lets see your fixed sight S&W 22 Revolvers

22 revolvers seem to be really popular today with the high cost of ammo, so when I was talking to some guys in one of local gun shops today about the new hammerless/fixed sight 22 revolvers coming out this year from Smith&Wesson, it got me thinking about the fixed sight 22 revolvers that are already in circulation. These are four that I have starting with the earliest, the Model 45 4" M&P 22 LR, then the Model 650 3"HB 22M.R.F./22 LR dual cylinder gun, and the two newer guns, the Model 317 AirLite 8 shot 22 LR, and the newest Model 351PD 7 Shot 22 M.R.F. with factory laser grips. I know there are other earlier examples out there, like early rare Chief Specials in 22 lr, as well as pre-war fixed sight M&P 22's. Let's see what interesting guns you forum members have.

Thank you. I plan to add the Model 43 C 8 shot 22 LR, and Model 351 C 7 shot 22 M.R.F. when they become available in this area.

I wasn't going to post on this one, but I noticed some other "non-S&W's" so I guess it will be OK. I've got a Model 17, but it's adjustable, so I'll show a couple of the "other guys."


Ruger Bearcat (08)/50 anniversary new model Single-Six (03)



A pair of Ruger Single-Sixs from 1958. I know, technically they can be adjusted for windage, but I never have. The one in front is unconverted.



Colt Frontier Scout dual cylinder from 1967.

The Model 45 is the earliest one that I own, not the earliest one made by Smith&Wesson. Nice gun by the way.
