Hey Little Brother!!!
I enjoy the fact that revolvers come in so many shapes and sizes. This often leads me to taking what I call “Little Brother” pics. Here are a couple of pics that really provide some perspective....
Model 629 Classic (.44 Mag) and model 686+ (.357 Mag)
Model 66 (.357 Mag) and model 60 (.38)
If you have any “Little Brother” or other gun family pics, please feel free to share!!

Your first picture reminds me of why the current S&W 686+ is on my short list of revolvers to lust after (someday, maybe soon!). While I could care less about the hole, I'm one of those heretics that actually prefers the appearance of the frame's curve under the hammer to the old Smith's shape. The grips feel (and look) just fine to me, the four-and-a-smidgen inch barrel looks great, and seven .357 chambers in a medium frame is my idea of size efficiency.
Thanks for reminding me of that with your good pic, Cellar Hound! And now, back to your fun thread!

Not that you need any more encouragement but I really like that 686+.... it is one of my absolute favorites to take to the range. Great gun!

Fabulous Jim. That's certainly the big 'n' little of it!
