Took my 6 inch model 17 Smith out yesterday for some practice. I bought it from a Lebanon pawnshop for $400 and couldn't figure out why they sold it so cheap. (in my opinion). When I first bought it and shot it the double action wouldn't fire but four times out of six. Yep that is why they sold it
Told a good friend about my problems and he gave me a new mainspring. I put it in and finally yesterday got to try it. She really shoots now. Boy does she shoot good.
The gun is interesting as it has a white outline rear site and a post front with a brass bead on it. It is an early gun and shows little wear yet has a few spots of missing blueing. Grips are perfect. Boy I sure like them 22s.
