I really like my 686-1 4" which i carried for my last many years before i retired. Have put 30,000 rounds thru it - mostly on the range - some else where. Then my 686-4 snubby which i still carry today, and my 686-4 6" with a Red Dot sight for target practice & for shooting coyotes, fox, armadillos ... etc. I particularly like the S&W Combat wood grips over the Rubber ones. Got into photography & have taken pics of them. Some 8.5" by 11" pics are mounted on the walls in my Den. Here they are. Post them pics of your 686s guys.
