    Looking for a new revolver

    Same suggestion as other replys. If you want a blue for 586. If stainless suits you go 686" 6" will be a better range gun in my opinion.

    686 and 686 plus

    My answer same a s previous two responses. Plus is a 7 shot and the other is a 6 shot. The Plus will be slightly higher but usually not a ton more.

    Price range for S&W 686 357

    Gp with the S&W I had to read your post again as I didn't think I read it correctly. I would not be able to get anywhere close to that price in my area for a 686" of any length. I just got a 686 + for a total of $821 incl tx, and bg fee. I say jump on the Smith and start shooting. If you have...

    Back to the J...

    Better and gun om hand than in the safe I hope you locate something that you like. I'd suggest one of the S&W 642 Airweights. I switched a couple of years back from a Ruger SP-101 much for the same reason as you stated. The Ruger was not a great choice for summer and I never really felt...

    Revolver Sighting/ test fire question

    I have and enjoy my four revolvers. My latest purchase was a 686 Plus 3" .357. When I purchased the weapon I noticed it had much heavier bun rings than any other weapon I have from S&W when first purchased. I know that the weapon is indeed new and new owned so that previous use not a concern...
