I've posted this photo before, but here are my two no-dash 617s.
It's hard to imagine a nicer, more enjoyable handgun.

My 617 no dash
617 no dash. I'd love to find a 4 inch no dash.

I think that when you find that elusive four-inch no-dash, your six-incher will see a LOT less trigger time. The shorter gun just hangs in the hand so much better and mine is actually a little more accurate than my longer one.
I shot my six-inch a month ago for the first time in - well - years and only because I had replaced the factory rear sight assembly in that photo with a Millett like the one on the four-inch and wanted to sight it in.
I'm one of those who finds K/L Combat stocks horribly uncomfortable yet I like them on a square-butt N-frame and find that Target stocks fit me acceptably. As it is equipped in that photo, my four-inch 617 is about the perfect revolver.

I agree Ed. I have the 6 inch because it fell in my lap for a great price, but would much rather have the 4inch no dash to complement my -4, 10 shot 617
true..which is why i just sold off a 6" no dash and a 6" -1. Now i have only the 4" no dash...frees up space in the safe too
What would be the price difference between a 4 and 6 inch no dash 617, and in which one's favor?

I love this revolver. It needs to get to the range more.

No dashes just look ....right... with the combat stocks on them. It really does not matter if the stocks are good,or comfortable, they just look right with them. My no dash came with the rubber grips and while they are comfortable, thats all I can say about them.

Picking my new 6" up tomorrow. Think I am going to add some wood grips in the future.

fyimo, where did you get the grips for your 6"?
I bought the grips from a member up here and then he offered me the revolver also so they got back together the way it left the factory. I also bought several pairs of S&W combat grips off of EBay back when they were about $100 a set but these were what came on the revolver according to the seller.
