Smith & Wesson Model 53

Description:
Remington was contracted to develop a new round that would be similar to .224 Harvey Kay-Chuck but easier to mass produce: Remington proceeded to use .357 Magnum as a parent case, tapering it to .22 caliber. The result – a centerfire round with a Small Pistol primer and a distinctively long tapered neck – was dubbed the .22 Remington Jet, and Smith & Wesson subsequently developed a new revolver around it by modifying the quintessential Model 17 into the final product: the Model 53, with a double-action trigger and an 11 cm (4"), 15 cm (6") or 21 cm (8.¾") barrel marked ".22 Magnum" and bored as such. .22 Remington Jet
