Tell me about a 686-6 5"

[DeanD]

Saw a picture of one, has a non-fluted cylinder. Is it a 6-shot or 7-shot? Appears to be an L frame as one would expect. Has the forbidden ILS though.

Might be the five inch version of the 3-5-7 series. They are seven shots, unfluted cylinder and come in 3",5", and 7" versions. I have a 3".

If it has an unfluted cylinder & a 5" barrel it's the TALO 686+, SKU# 150854, which is a L-frame. TALO used to distribute them put apparently quit but S&W is still making/selling them.

OMG, don't worry about the ILS. It's a none issue.
