    S&W .22 revolver

    IMHO: You just can't get any better in a 22LR Revolver than a 6in or 8-3/8in barrel, Old S&W K-22 or a S&W Model 17. For Plinking or for any other type of shooting you will want to do. And in 25yrs You will be giving Your Son a revolver, that he will treasure for the rest of His life. And can...
