Historical / Design Notes
First introduced as “K-22 Masterpiece" in 1947; later given the model number 17 in 1957.
It was designed as a target revolver (for “smallbore" / .22 competition shooting).
There have been different variants over time, including versions with different barrel lengths and “under-lug" barrels.
Production of the original version stopped around 1998.
It was reintroduced under S&W’s “Classic" or “Masterpiece" lines later on.
Performance and Use Cases
Very accurate: Because of its long sight radius (especially in the 6" version) and light .22 LR recoil, it‚s great for target shooting and training.
Low recoil: The .22 LR cartridge is mild, making this revolver very shootable for long sessions.
Collector’s appeal: Older “pre-model 17" K-22 versions are popular among collectors.
Modern utility: The reissued “Masterpiece" version brings vintage style with some modern production quality.
