When we were in KC a few weeks back we had a chance to do some shooting with Bill. He is an incredible coach. We both got some good things to focus on.
One of the big suggestions was to get a 22 LR handgun as similar to what we shot as possible.
I had looked at a few revolvers at Cabelas for the past month. Today we decided to fondle them and decide which way to go. Decision came down to a 1980 S&W 17-4 or a 1950 Combat Masterpiece.
Decided to go with the Combat Masterpiece as it feels most similar to Dawn's 686.
Other than some honest holster wear the gun is in very good shape. Forcing cone in clean and sharp. Cylinder has little end shake. Trigger is pretty nice, far better than what I would expect on a gun made today.
