I believe the 917/922 line was discontinued and replaced with the XT 17 and 22 line. Which is actually a good thing. I have a 917 VS and handled the new XT 17 and the my 917 feels like garbage compared to it. Rough machining and a it felt like someone dumped sand in my trigger. Whereas with the new XT line, Marlin has tightened up their QC and added an adjustable trigger (just like the savage accutrigger).
 
Ok thats great to know ill look into those. I have one thats older but a near identical design with clouded stainless and a black synthetic stock in .22 mag and i love it figured a .17 the same would be nice but i just found out about .17wsm and now i am a bit curious.
