Mines a Kit Gun from the 60's . Wanted one for years but when I finally got one the grips felt too small for a field gun so I found some oversized wood grips on ebay that solved that problem.
Since bears were mentioned in the last couple of posts , in that situation my .22 would be replaced by a .44 Special with either Elmer loads or Sheeter loads with the Keith bullet hard cast and at least two rolls of toilet paper.

Grumpy old man with a gun.....Do not touch .
Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.
Don't bother my monument and I'll leave yours alone.

Itch scratched. I'm now the proud owner of this S&W 317 Kit Gun pre-lock 22LR. Thanks to a fellow Campfire member. Picked it up from my FFL guy and got out a little last night to try it out. Great little revolver, amazingly lightweight, great trigger and overall workmanship as to be expected from a Smith and Wesson. Wind was howling so a little tough to do a real accuracy assessment but it was easily pop can accurate at 10-15 yards. Which is about all I'm good for anymore. Would like to put the red dot off my 686 on it just for kicks and see what it will really do. Overall impressive little revolver and a lot of fun. Will definitely be in my kit on a regular basis. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/wN1rRhS.jpg)

Nice one, I'm jealous! I just picked this guy up this today, put about 60 rounds through it while fixing fence this afternoon. New model 63 with the lame lock. Nice little gun, fun to shoot! Ordered some subsonic ammo for it but it's still a little too loud without ear plugs. ![[Linked Image from hosting.photobucket.com]](https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/e78/montanasam/20220520_165140.jpg)

I call dibs if you decide to sell it, I really like it. I have a 63 I really enjoy already.
