I've got a second generation 586 L-Comp (w/IL), bought it from a forum member a couple of years ago. I like it a lot, very nice gun, very accurate, terrific action. The port doesn't bother me because it actually works, the recoil pushes back rather than up, makes the gun must faster to shoot. I had the front edge of the cylinder broken just a bit to make it easier to holster and the charge holes chamfered a little more aggressively for faster loading. Also had the hammer and trigger bright polished and the gun parkerized since it had to be refinished anyway. I carry it regularly for field and woods work and occasionally on duty.
