HISTORY: The Smith & Wesson "Kit Gun" is a small, 6-shot, .22 Long Rifle, double-action revolver that was designed to be easily packed in a hunting or fishing "kit" for small game hunting, plinking, pest control and self defense. In 1911, the Kit Gun line began as the Model 22/32. In 1953, an improved model was introduced--the "22/32 Kit Gun Model of 1953”. In 1958, Smith and Wesson renamed it the Model 34. This production line continued until 1960 when it was redesigned using the slightly larger J-frame and marketed as the model 34–1. The Model 34-1 continued to be manufactured until 1991.
