When my duty semi-auto became finicky, I traded it for a 4" 686P and never looked back. Shooting duty .38+P, I found the gun very accurate and the weighted rib kept the gun on target for fast multiple shots. I felt that it handled better with small round butt pachmyer(sp) grips. It is not a light piece to pack but I still have it and carry it occasionally in retirement.
