The PC:

• Chrome Teardrop Hammer
• Chrome Trigger with Stop
• Precision Crowned Barrel
• Cylinder Cut for Moonclips
• PC Tuned Action

Also, my 686 PC doesn't like to ignite bullets...

A couple of other observations about my 686:

• It has a remarkably heavy DA trigger, even after replacing the springs with a Wilson kit. The same springs created a trigger pull that was probably two pounds lighter in my K and N frames. (BTW, the misfires were with the stock springs, I installed an Apex firing pin when I did the springs, so hopefully it's fixed)
• It's the exact same size as a GP100, so holsters are interchangeable.
• Despite being almost identical to a K frame, the 686 feels much heavier and chunkier in my hand. I really struggled to a find a grip I like, and my standard preferences for K and N frames didn't work with the 686.
• Moonclips are very convenient, and I will quite likely get other pistols cut for them.
