I have a S&W .357 mag model 686-2
and I would like to know what frame it is so I can order the correct speed loaders and holster for it. But I cannot find any thing stamped on it anywhere even under the grips. Of course I also dont know what I should be looking for. Can someone help?
Thank You

L frame.

Thank you, can you explain how you know this? Is it imprinted on the gun some where? Someone told me its the number of screws in the frame, but I dont know what they meant or how they came to that conclusion. Your input is appreciated. Thanks again.
