There is something Zen like about the 17’s/K22’s. Even if they or you or the ammo are not shooting well they are still just amazing fun to shoot, own and look at. Enjoy it.
Revolvers are awesome. I am a wonder nine era kid. Grew up with Die Hard, Lethal Weapon and the rise of Glock, but I friggin love me a nice wheel gun and really need to shoot mine more.

Good catch. I think your .22 ought to be your best gun, you will be able to shoot it the most. (Not counting competition and training requiring a centerfire, of course.)

My model 17 got used a lot- by conservative estimate over 100K through it just by me ( mid 60’s gun bought used) never a part failure, replacement or anything but routine cleaning. I could be completely content with just S&W wheel guns, and no autos at all

I’ve got a K22 in layaway at work, circa 1950. Hope to have it out in a couple of weeks.
