    Thoughts on the 442

    I think my hand hurts at the mention of it. But they are good little revolvers. I have to have mine in steel as I can be recoil sensitive. But the airweights keep calling me.

    686+ 7-shot: Opinions??

    I carry my 2 1/2 OWB and IWB, all you need ais a good leather holster. Go to a actual craftsman and order a good one, life is too short to wear an off the shelf holster.

    Any negatives to buying a 686 no dash?

    The only downside I can think of is that I don’t have the cash to buy one.

    SW Model 66 2 1/2"

    John gives good advice. Store bought holsters work for some people, but not me. Life is too short to walk around wearing a bad holster. Nelson leather is my preference.

    Is this a Lew Horton Model S&W 686-1?

    That’s a beauty Hunter! But fear it is no good. Send it to me and I will keep it with my 686-1.

    Anyone have factory banana stocks on your 640 or 642 centennial

    I have a set for my 649. I like that they are wide at the shoulder, helps absorb recoil. They do not work with speedloaders and they interfere with ejection of spent cases. Look good, feel good, but may end up getting the dremel treatment if I were to carry with them.

    686-1 2 1/2 In. To buy? Not to buy?

    I would have bought it on site at that price. This one is my favorite.

    Who’s carrying a revolver these days? Let’s show them off...

    Revolvers blend into the body better for me than pistols do.

    Who’s carrying a revolver these days? Let’s show them off...

    These two, together or either alone. But the 45 Shield, which I hate because it is ugly and amazing, gets carried a lot too.

    The 3 inch 5 shot magnum: what role?

    Many people find the shape of a revolver more friendly for carry due to the difference in shape. Those same people have also come to grip with the theory of certain death for anyone with less than 12 rounds, if that is where the line is. For me that would be an appendix carry for tucked shirt...

    I FELL HARD for a 2.5" 686 I need to know: Is she the one?

    No, I don’t think so. I finally bought a set of round targets. Everything you see with 2.5” 686 is combats. Did any ever come with round targets? Round or square, target stocks fit my small hands best. This set of stocks have couple dings to the checkering, so they match the slightly used look...
