Good deal. Glad you got it. The Hogue grips are more comfortable for me anyway. You know if you ever want to sell it you won't have a hard time. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

If the price is right buy it. 1006's are great shooters and are getting harder to come by. Buy it, shoot it, enjoy it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

It's a QR code. It is very common on lot's of things now. When scanned it gives you information about a product. Since it's under the grip my guess is it was used for manufacturing purposes to inform the assembler what type of gun the frame was intended for. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using...

I have been wondering the same thing. I saw one and fell in love with it. I lucked up and won one on GB. I love mine and I am curious how many were made. I'm going to enjoy mine either way. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

I took the 386 to the range today. I am very pleased with it. It shoots just as well as all my other S&W revolvers. I love the light weight. I thought it might be too light for magnums but it was actually not bad at all with magnum ammo. This one is a keeper. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A...

Like Steved 13 said it is milled for an optic also which is why I ordered one. I have a 5 inch M&P pro I shoot in stock class so this allows me to use the same frame and have an open class gun for probably less than half. I only have to upgrade 1 trigger so thats about $100 less plus I can...

I called my local dealer and ordered one but I have no word on when it will ship. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

I picked up my 386 XL today. I haven't had a chance to fire it yet but I am pleased so far. It is used but in very good condition. I knew it would be light it weighs 30 ounces but it feels lighter than I expected. I am looking forward to shooting it. Now I need to find a nice holster for a 6"...

I have a 627-4 38 super I bought from a friend. I know new they were over $1000. I paid $800 and was happy to pay that. I have seen very few on GB most have went $1200 or more. I don't know how many they made but it wasn't a lot. I love mine and I will probably never part with it. Sent from my...

I use the Safariland Comp 2 and the K frame version wouldn't push in far enough to release. The HKS might work. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

I saw a 386 XL Hunter last year at my local gun range. I didn't know they existed until then. They were only made for 2 years but I wanted one. I finally won a nice used one on GB yesterday. I should have it by Wednesday or Thursday. I will post pictures when I bring it home and I will post a...

That is odd. I looked in the Standard Catalog of S&W and the 19-5 was introduced in 1982 and the 19-6 was in 1988. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

I had a Ruger Security Six for a few years. It is close in size to the K frame but K frame speed loaders don't work very well. Neither do the L frame speed loaders. It uses the same speed loaders as the Colt Mark III's. They are nice revolvers. The only reason I sold mine was because I got a 66...

Congratulations. I love my 686 SSR. I fell in love with the way it looks initially but after shooting it I love how well it balances. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk
