Review: Smith & Wesson Model 17 revolver

Yep, I thought it was about time to actually review my revolver. I hope that this may provide at least a useful impression despite of the fact that the review is not really in-depth and far from professional.

@slickrickjohnson

Thanks.

Hello - this review was really good. I think you covered all the points needed. I am a target shooter. I just got a S&W model 63 5" bbl. I paid too much ($650.00) but S&W revolvers WITHOUT that nasty lock right above the cylinder latch are REALLY hard to find now. I would like to purchase the SIG MOSQUITO but I have heard too many bad things about it & I would be taking a chance. THX. JAMES.

Well, I'd say the Mosquito is not extraordinary, but I'm satisfied with it. The important thing is the right choice of ammunition. I've had the best results with CCI ammo so far. With other brands it tends to run less reliably.

@paulc43

*shrug* Your loss. I don't have any problem with being called "weird". Watch my "3 years on Youtube" video, that's all I have to say about that topic.

GOT ONE MINT IN ORIGINAL BOX. HARDLY FIRED. A PIECE OF ART FOR SURE.

nice gloves...WTF?

I've got a K-22 that I estimated to have been made in 1948. I've got three speed loaders for it too. Cuts the time down on reloading pretty darn good. HKS model K-22.

Just got a Model 17 today. Wow! What a sweet revolver. Great shooter!
