Anyone on here shoot one or have shot one? Seriously thinking that this will be my next purchase and looking for feedback. I've got a 686 in 357, so this would be a cheap ammo trainer for the same sized revolver. Also, anyone got one they want to part with?
Smith & Wesson 617 22lr

I've shot one before. It was my buddy's gun. They are a lot of fun and would be great as a trainer for the 686 since they are essentially the same gun.
Thanks for the update. I'm accurate with my tuned up 686 and so is everyone else that shoots it. 38/357 start getting a little pricy after a while and I have enough 22lr to fill a cooler. I'd do the same trigger job on this one also so that they are almost twins except for the ammo. I guess I need to see if anyone local will match the $642 price I can order one for in N. GA. LGS wants over $100 more for one.
Only downside to revolvers is that I can't suppress them.

That's what I want also. I guess I'm going to have to order one since no one seems to have one local to me. 6" versions I can find.
They pop up for sale regularly on several of the local used gun trader forums, they’re just pricey and I haven’t justified the cost yet.
