i have a small frame [ .22 rimfire] revolver with a 4" barrel i got to use for rabbit, grouse, camping, and backpacking... i need to get a holster for it. heres my question, what s&w frame size is equivelant to small frame, [same frame size as a ruger single-six]?

also i am curious as to each of the frame-size designations used by s&w.

thanks in advance.

I believe the small frame on the S&W is a "K".

According to the S&W website, the small frames are J and the medium frames are K or L.

Learned something today.

Yes, I mistakenly considered their small snubbies to be "K" and they are not.

The only reason I knew was because I've been trying to decide if I want a wheel gun or a semi so. I've done quite a bit of research on the S&W page the past few months.
