4" 34-1 .22 Kit Gun

Excellent, you have attained the ideal compromise of accuracy and convenience. Once you establish which ammo is favored by your gun for accuracy, you won't have to worry about accommodating the quirkiness of other brands.

Second range trip today... after polishing the extraction is now fine. The only thing is that gunk quickly builds up in the chambers after a few shots making the insertion of fresh rounds more difficult. I may just have to carry a brush with me during range trips and scrub them out every 50 rounds or so.

I'm still amazed by how phenomenally accurate it is for such a little gun.
 
My first ever firearm. Bought one at the gun club in France in 1959. I couldn't get used to the round grip, so traded it to a buddy for a Ruger Single-Six.
 
This will probably be my last gun purchase for awhile. I need to stop filling up the safe and start fixing up the house this year. But in the meantime I had to take care of the fact that I lacked a .22 revolver in my collection. I was interested in a new Colt King Cobra, but the one at the LGS sold before I could make up my mind. Then I started to think about the old S&W Kit Guns. Built on a J-Frame they're nice and small, and like most of you I'm a sucker for old-school blued handguns. And so I located this one online and sent off payment and C&R...

It's about 98% overall with the original box and accessories, made around 1968-ish as best I can tell (SN# 1185xx).
Very nice one you got there!

OK, sure. Sorry, sounds like you've got the addiction just like most of us, LOL.
