I'm mostly a fan of 1/2 lug guns, but I have 2 full-lug revolvers. The first revolver, I ever bought, was this 686-6, about 5 or 6 years ago. I didn't know or care about "pre-lock" guns. It has a superb trigger and overall feel, and has always been a reallyb good shooter. It got me started loving revolvers.

I agree that a full lug, on a 6" .22 is a bit heavy for the caliber, until I take it to the range. Not sure if it's the gun, or me, but the only other handgun that I own that can shoot as well as this 617 is a High Standard Supermatic.

I wasn't really looking for another .22, at the time (2-ish years ago), but it had tools, papers, and box, and carried a price-tag that seemed to be about $250-300 below market. How could I pass it up, especially with those crazy asymetrically-grained square combat grips?

I have owned two full lugged handguns in my life. A Colt Python SS 6" and the S&W 610-3 4". For my preference the Python felt to muzzle heavy and has moved on. I am getting use to the 610 now, so will see how it goes
 
Got a couple for starters, a Andy Horvath 3" full lug "K" in .327. Also a Manurhin MR73 in .32 long and .357. Smithnut, nice grips on the Roper above. Larry
