I have been looking at the 38 special +P airweight and the M&P 357 both have enclosed hammers,will the trigger pull be the same?Also will the Performance center be smother and lighter weight pull?

Very accurate and handy you will love it!

Here is a link to the current offering...The grips sure are different......Is the 686-1 frame called a N frame ?and the grip a round frame grip?The Square type grip's will not fit the frame right?don't laugh...just trying to learn..LOL Revolvers - Smith & Wesson

Very NICE,I didn't know the performance center guns ever came in that configuration...Will the performance center do any of there voo-doo on a reguler pet 686-1 and if yes,how much would it cost?I know the "smmooootthhh action" on those performance center's are as good as it gets!!!! What...

Thanks for shareing the pics ,you guys have some super nice 686 357 Magnum's! SSWWWEEETTTT!!!

Is it ok to use hoppe's#9 to clean the bore? What do you guys recommend to clean one up after shooting a bunch?I have never owned a stainless firearm before...

OK,I understand,,,The gunshop had it marked as a legit "Lew Horton" and i was trying to find out if it really was or if they are just blowing smoke...LOL..I'am like you,, it dont really matter ! I like 'em just the same... Thanks a bunch!

Hey Rollinhot Thanks for the help,The S&W i'am asking about is not the one in the pic but it does look just like yours....Is your 357/pic a Lew Horton ? The unit i looked at DID have a M stamped on it "yes" what does the M mean"?

Here is a pic of one i found on Gunsamerica,would a Lew Horton look like this and have a special serial#?The one i saw had serial#AWU2xxx and 686-1 smith wesson model 686-1 357 mag Smith & Wesson Revolvers > Full Frame Revolver for sale, gun classifieds or gun auction from Cameron Gustafson...

Hey all,I need help,did S&W make a Lew Horton 686-1 357magnum 6shot in a stainless with a 2 1/2 in barrel adjustable sights and rounded combat wood grip with finger grooves? If Yes.. Are these just as collectable as the 44spl.& 44magnum units?Approximately what year were these made?1989maybe...

Hey 460V,Congrats on your new baby,Iam thinking about getting one of those myself,I wonder if the barrel can be changed out to a longer one if i ever get tired of the little snub one?But I do like a short barrel for small conceal carry...Good luck!

Awsome,You have a good excuse to reload now,some 180gr.& 200gr. reloads right above the 44special level loads should be sweettt in that little powerhouse!congratulations on your new baby!I want one too....

Do you think Elmer Keith is the father of modern handgun hunting?I found a pic of his 'ol smith&wesson and wanted to share with those who have never seen it before...they don't make 'em like Elmer Keith anymore!What all was he involved in inventing ..besides the 44/41 magnum?Correct me if i'am...

A BIG "Thanks a bunch to everyone bigtime"!!! This has been a learning experince for me & i feel i know a littlemore about new brass now.. A New question.......How many reloads should i expect with the new brass and when should i toss it? I had a bad brass experiance years ago from reloading...
