I have the S&W model 617 and am toying with the idea of putting a suitable scope on this gun. I have virtually no knowledge about handgun scopes. Can anyone offer a quick primer on what I need to know about achieving this. I'm not interested in spending big bucks on this project, just enough to possibly increase my fun with the 617. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, DanGTG. That appears to be similar to what Smith & Wesson shows on its web site only 10 bucks cheaper. I'm going to make some inquiries at a local dealer regarding scope choices. I'm not clear what the advantage of the red dot type is. If I do make a choice soon, I'll let you know.
