I am interested in purchasing a S&W revolver (because by all accounts they are the best) for use in ISSF Center Fire and Service Pistol. Always wanting the best, I am very interested what the S&W Performance Center has to offer.

Do all Perf. Center revolvers come with match barrels or only a selected few models? I know the DA trigger pulls are a lot smoother but what can expect in terms of trigger weight for SA and DA in a performance center revolver verses the non-perf. center equivalent?

I am looking at a (recently discontinued I believe) 686 .357 6" with weighted barrel and scope rail from the Perf. Center and would like to know the difference between it and standard 6" 686 in terms of barrel quality and trigger weights.

Thanks

Future S&W owner.
