It has been a fun week for me.
I went the whole first half of the year putting money in my slush fund savings.
I am glad I did, I bought a 625JM on Tuesday and bought a 686 Deluxe on Saturday. I will get it tomorrow.
They have not gotten any new Smith revolvers in quite a while. When I was doing the paperwork for the new 625JM I noticed two new Smiths.
I had left a Moon clip on the counter, They called me and I went in two days later to get it. When I was there I asked to look at the 686 Deluxe and a 686 Plus. I have wanted a 6 inch 686. I asked for a price quote to see if they would come down and if I could swing the price. They quoted me a price of $715.00 for the Deluxe. The 686 Plus was more money and not what I wanted.
Was $715.00 a good price for the deluxe? I do not see any on the auction sites to compare it to.
I know the cylinder holds 1 more bullet and the barrel is 2 inches longer and the grips are a nice looking wood finish.
Are there any other differences between the 686-6 4 inch 6 shot and the Deluxe?
Thanks for the help.
