For years I’ve chased after revolvers that I used to scoff at when I was a kid. I was into autos pretty heavy in my youth because they were cool and all my TV hero’s carried them. Sigs, Berettas, 1911s, Bren Tens, PPKs. Fast forward three decades and I still have some autos but I got old and curmudgeonly and found my heart really needed to fill that void that I had resisted for all that time. Everyone loves a good 22 and everyone needs 22 revolvers.

This week I was able to get one that I’ve dreamt about for a long time and I couldn’t be happier.

1996 Smith & Wesson Model 63

I also found these really handy 22 speed strips from Tuff Products.

thanks for looking!

That's really neat! I have a newer 3" version and while I sure wish it didn't have the lock, I really like it. Shoots like it has a longer barrel also.
Congratulations.

I love almost all .22’s. Several years ago I passed on a pristine Diamondback. The price was ridiculous, $600 as I remember. I finally bought one a couple of years ago, for a price that I have blocked from memory.
@Skunkhollow i understand completely. I’ve blocked the price of this one out too and will just enjoy it without worry. Instead of leaving my children an inheritance I’m going to leave them a few guns and **** ton of debt. :)

Added part of the fun is when it costs pennies to shoot vs $1.00 per round with larger calibers.

I’ve reluctantly sold two .22 revolvers over the years. They were so inexpensive to purchase too. Now both (single-six & Taurus) have more than doubled in price:(
