Got this one out today to do some steel plate shoot'in and it still is one of my best shooting wheel guns I own. I had this 25-2 tricked out many years ago by Tom Volquartson the well known Ruger .22 pistol smith. Although Tom is not known for S&W's he did a great job on this one.... timming and triger is without a doubt top notch 8)

Here are a couple of pics

Gary,

I like that gun a lot. Is that a hard chrome finish? Who makes(made) the top sight rib assembly?

It's hard chrome by Metaloy and a Bomar rib.... a bit heavy but no recoil. I won a lot of matches with it and shoots like a dream. Hope to see you down at OOPS some time....Got to find time to get there SOON!
Gun show this weekend in DSM

Not to sound nitpicky but isnt that a wichita rib. If not is is a rather interesting bo-mar. Still a nice looking blaster though. Looks like some fine machine work around the barrel ports.
