Remember how I threatened to let my fingers do the walking? Well it paid off. Bart's in beeYOOtiful downtown Glen Burni Murlin had what I wanted, sure enough...
A 6" barrel 10 shot Smith and Wesson model 617. It matches my 686. Except it fires more and smaller/cheaper boolits.
Bart's was high on my list of shooty joints to check because of the nice way they treated the Saucy Trollop when she did a transfer of her Fohty Fo. They had a nice Colt Sidewinder and a 617 back then, but they had both long since sold.
I was less hopeful because I had seen them come and go through that same store. And how often does lightning strike the same spot?
I must be living right.
Well, not right enough. I missed a signature on one of the forms and have to go back today, but in a week, that revolver will be in my hot little hands. Oh and I had to wait for this guy to finish monopolizing the salesmen's time arguing that he should be allowed to buy a gun even with his DWI arrest or conviction. Dude, they said no. They just can't. Go away. Yeah, speak to your lawyer.
Anyway.
Speedloaders for this model? Yeah. No. Gonna have to use something else if I want to load it fast. (well, maybeeeeee...)
And now I have some more breathing room in selecting a snubbie.

Gee, I wonder if he has a driver's license and is still allowed to buy alcohol?
Guy is busted for a crime that includes, as it's essential elements, the abuse of Automobiles and Alcohol.
As a result, he is forever prohibited from purchasing...a gun.
Makes perfect sense to me...how about you?
That S&W 617 looks fantastic. It has been on my dream armoury list for a long time (its a dream list because I ain't allowed to own such violent bits of metal in the Socialist Republic of Little Britain).
Ah, for the want to go pistol shooting once more...
Let's hit the range soon!
Nice. How much did that set you back?
A pretty penny, Wai. Ouch. My intention originally was to get a $200 .22. This was almost 4 times that. So it better not wear out in a year or two.
I suspect I won't need to replace it. Any great great grandchildren might if they shoot it enough.
