I went out today to buy an older 17-2 I saw advertised. Long story short it had lived a rough life and I passed on it. I did find a 17-8 in the box that looks unfired. It was a little less money than the beat-up 17-2 and came home with me. Anyone got a 17-8 and shot it a lot? I have read that the aluminum cylinder can be problematic but S&W will replace it with a stainless steel cylinder if it doesn't hold up. This one is going to be shot a lot in DA mode.
