Something followed my home from the range today! In all honesty, I didn't intend to buy this one but my fiancé told me I should get it if I liked it. Couldn't pass on that opporintuity!
It's a 6" Target model. The wood is in very good shape and there are a few wear marks. I really like the less common design of the low bore and how light the alloy frame on this is. I didn't have time to go back on the range today, but hopefully I can do so soon to give this a try.
From what I read on the S&W forums, the 422 has a threaded barrel which allows for a suppressor adapter to be easily added. That's cool, don't have a suppressor but it is on the list of wants. They also mention that the firing pin can be fragile, but EWK sells replacements so that is covered.
Does anyone else have one or know now any other tidbits that would be good to know?
I've got an email out to Smith & Wesson to get the date of manufacture, just to satisfy my curiosity.
