I can completely disassemble/reassemble a S&W double action revolver blind folded.

I’ve owned a GP100 and a SP101. I currently own a Police Service Six and.n SP101 in .22. I have never needed a tool to take them down or put them back together. Trigger group snaps in with a firm squeeze. I keep all paperwork on guns I own or owned. The GP cost me $299 used 5 years ago. Some security outfit out West was dumping them for semi autos. Gun looked brand new and even came in factory serial numbered box. I miss those days of great deals.
I’ve owned 2 686’s. Fine guns and I wish I still had them. I’d probably take a pre-lock 686 over a GP, provides rhwy werw the same price. A newer more expensive 686 over a GP? No thanks. I know they’re still fine guns, but not fine enough to justify the price difference and I just don’t like the hole for the lock.
