[QUOTE="udiablo, post: 3005672, member: 5748"] The earlier full-lug revolvers are excellent. The one I've kept (yup, bought it new several years ago) is a full lug 8-3/8" Model 17, that has had a trigger job. It is scoped and has been my "squirrel rifle" for several years. Very accurate with good ammo, and easy to carry (I have a chest holster for it). If you get the SS version (the 617), the trigger should just keep getting better with use. With any good revolver, treat the cylinder and crane with care and don't abuse the lock work (I don't care what you've seen on TV). [/QUOTE]
