Smith & Wesson Model 351 PD .22 Magnum 1.875" Barrel 7-Shot Black Matte 160228

Smith & Wesson Model 351 PD

The Smith & Wesson Model 351 PD is a compact, lightweight J-Frame revolver chambered in .22 Magnum, designed for concealed carry, personal protection, and recreational plinking. Featuring a 1.875-inch stainless steel barrel and an aluminum alloy frame and cylinder, this AirWeight model weighs just 11.2 ounces, making it one of the lightest revolvers in its class. Its black matte finish and ergonomic wood grips provide a sleek, functional aesthetic, continuing the legacy of the Model 51, originally introduced in 1960 as the .22/32 Kit Gun Magnum.

Delving into its features, the Model 351 PD boasts a HI-VIZ Fiber Optic Orange front sight and a fixed U-Notch rear sight for quick target acquisition in various lighting conditions. The single/double-action mechanism offers versatility, with a smooth trigger pull for precise shooting, and the external hammer allows for single-action operation. With a 7-shot capacity, it provides ample firepower for a compact revolver. The scandium-enhanced aluminum alloy frame ensures durability while keeping weight minimal, ideal for all-day carry. Recent reviews, such as those from Outdoor Life, praise its manageable recoil and suitability as a trail or concealed carry gun, particularly with modern .22 Magnum defensive loads like Federal Punch or Speer Gold Dot.

This revolver is perfectly suited for concealed carry, law enforcement backup, and outdoor enthusiasts needing a lightweight, reliable firearm for personal protection or small game hunting. Its compact 6.2-inch overall length and robust construction make it a top choice for shooters seeking a balance of power and portability in dynamic scenarios.
