I Like it. I think the engraving looks nice, and the gun itself looks to be in good condition. Congrats to you, enjoy. Ray

Never been a fan of laser engraved firearms. Looks cheesy. Still nice gun!

I might be wrong (and probably am) but I think I saw several S&Ws like that one advertised on sites like GunBroker.com back when I was actively pursuing 686s five-plus years ago. Going from memory again, they were a special run ordered by a distributor OR a limited run by S&W.

I share James' opinion of that kind of engraving but guns with it may become valuable some day.
