Smith & Wesson has resumed production of two classic revolver designs after Ruger halted most of its wheelgun lineup. The Model 22 of 1917 Classic is a six-shot .45 ACP N-frame with a 5.5-inch barrel, half-moon front sight, lanyard loop and walnut grips plus a cylinder that accepts moon clips. The Model 22 Classic uses the same frame but chambers both .45 Auto and .45 Colt, features a four-inch barrel and a serrated ramp sight, and remains compatible with moon clips. Both guns receive modern manufacturing while retaining period appearance. They became available today.
