Funny thing about the 17-6 is that it was a transitional year... many (most?) of the dash-6 revolvers are full lug, like the one pictured. The early 17-6 revolvers are no lug, like the one I own... which looks like all the K-22's we all know and love.

The 16-4 was the only dash number of the 16's that was full lug, I believe. Poster Hammer It likely knows that better than most on this forum, he's got a phenomenally gorgeous handful of original, pristine S&W revolvers, mostly K-frames, I think.
