Years ago I think it was Smith that made a .22 DA revolver with a 4 inch barrel that had an interchangeable cylinder between .22 Mag, and .22 LR. Can anyone tell me what model it was? OR, can you help me identify a .22LR/.22Mag in double action? I already have two in single action, but I'd love to have one in double action. |

S&W never made an interchangeable .22LR/.22mag wheelgun as far as I can research. Colt did with the New Frontier model & I believe Taurus did for a while as well. The Colt was the first handgun I ever bought. I've never seen a DA combo. Maybe someone can say if Ruger ever made one or not? Highly doubtful, as the cylinder stop on the frame is different for a mag versus LR version, thus a DA cylinder wouldn't be able to be changed out. |
The .22 magnum version of the Model 63 is the Model 651. I don't have a blue book (but you know what I think of them) so I have to rely initially on memory (which isn't always 100% anymore either)  I used to own a Model 48 with both cylinders, though the accuracy with the .22lr cylinder was nothing to brag about.
