Greetings,

Calling all experts....

Looking to purchase a trail revolver 2.5" to 3". Been looking at models like the 686, 60 series. From reading it sounds like the 686 handles the mag loads, while the other models are basically 38 shooters and a once in awhile a 357 shooter. Like stated I'm looking for a trail gun, I wouldn't mind picking up 60 series but would like to shoot off a couple of mags through it without damage to the gun. I probably would not be shooting more than 500 loads a year of mags through the 60 series. Would this be too many loads for a 60 series gun to handle, or would it be fine? Also does the 686 come in a k frame?

Thanks for the help looking forward to learn and discover fuure possibilities on the S&W.
