s&w 617?

[criticalnegation]

so it looks like this thing's fallen off the roster as recently as two months ago. is it expected to get back on, or is this a sign that they won't renew? what's the usual wait time for renewal?

any news or insight is appreciated.

not going to be back on any time soon. Search and you will find out why.

Love that little revolver

Pretty frustrating that this classic .22LR revolver is a no no for Californians, isn't it?

[IVC]

617 can easily get back on the roster because the trio of "problematic" features doesn't apply to revolvers: magazine disconnect safety, loaded chamber indicator and microstamping.

Its an expensive .22 but man its so nice and a 22 doesnt have hardly any recoil as it is and this gun is heavy so its literally none. Wouldnt sell mine for sure!

I was planning on buying one within the year. It never occurred that their .22 revolver would disappear like many of their other guns. Really annoying. Especially if this is a permanent decision.

^ Glad you added that, was about to inquire 'cause I noticed the 10-shot cylinder...
Dude, I am digging that gun with Moradillo Retro Combats. A winning combo for sure !!!

Just thinking about S&W .22LR revos (17's, 18's, 617's) makes me want to grab my nephew,
a bag of cans, and enjoying some good 'ole hiking & plinking fun!
