My 686 pro series shot patterns not groups, Muzzle crown looked like doo doo. I sent it back, looks better nd now shoots much better.
All the pr series gun I have looked at recently seem to have the same defects. So common that when I called about the CS rep already knew the problem before I finished talking.
We need to send everyone of these guns back Dont reward S&W;s ****** QC by fixing it your self.
Only way Quality is gonna improve is if gun buyers make warranty work more expensive than better QC,
As it stands Smith is just saving money on making ****** guns and then only having to fix a few.
