Howdy, I've had my 686 since I bought it new, if I remember correctly it would have been late 1987 or early '88 but I thought I'd check based on the serial number; it's a 686 -3 BDR35xx

So what's the value of these in the used market? The unfluted cylinder, it's never had a scope nor D&T'ed, trigger was tuned by Smith about a year after I bought it, I believe Millet sights and it's been that way ever since. I polished the frame with Mother's back then too and haven't touched it since, it looks like it's chrome making it look cool but probably not as useful in a true hunting situation.



Thanks and Happy Shooting!
