Right now in our shop we've got a Smith 617 6" in .22 that's just... awesome. Price is mid-$500s.
I don't have a .22 handgun (other than an NAA mini), and being an instructor, I think that I actually can justify calling a purchase like this a "need." Isn't that great?
I would actually prefer the 4" barrel, but right now I'm looking for reviews on the above gun(s), and suggestions for other, comparable guns that are in a similar or lower price range.
I don't want a crappy or teensy-weensy .22, I want something that is high quality, durable, and well-balanced. I prefer a revolver for .22, as well as for starting out beginners (less bells and whistles to overwhelm them with).
Any help, as always, is much appreciated!
