629 PC (snub) vs 686 PC (snub)

That is a nice collection right there!

I guess let me muddy the waters a little more. Haha.

Between the 627 and 686, which do you enjoy more?

I would be hard pressed to pick between the two. They both have their benefits. The 627 holds one more round but the 686 is a touch smaller.

So I guess it's a toss up. I know, pretty noncommittal on my part!

I used to own the 686PC you're interested in and it's a sharp looking gun. However, I don't see any value in the slabbed barrel in a magnum revolver. It makes the gun difficult to control in follow up shots. I sold mine very fast after shooting it next to a 19 Carry Comp that I purchased afterwards.

Lol the barrel is 2.5". The make up of the barrel isn't going to make much of a difference.
