Default K22 Model 617 & 17-6 Group shot

Recently finished pairing the first edition 4" and 6" full underlug K 22's and thought I would share a picture of them .

The 4" guns have smooth "Combat triggers and OEM finger groove Combat stocks.

While the 6" versions had "Full Target" printed on the box end labels and came with wide TT/TH combo,
apparently the factory overlooked the "Target" stocks as OEM were finger groove "Combat" stocks (now in storage).

IMO CS stocks are fine on the 4" guns but I prefer the look and feel of the larger "Target" stocks on the longer barrel guns.



Feel free to post pictures of yours as well.

Very Nice Trifecta,
I do like the feel of FG combats especially round butts but am cursed (blessed?) with long fingers.

I have a set of SB FG Combats on a 4" Model 27-2,
The N frame version is larger and fills my hand much better than the K frame version.

That is a sweet trio !
I cant help but wonder what a 6" Model 586 and full lug 29 would look like with them but of course that opens the floodgates.

Although I already had a 4" 586 I successfully resisted getting a 6" Model 586 the other day realizing it would lead to wanting 6" versions of all my 4" guns and that would lead to wanting their snub versions etc...
