Hello,
i have found this pictures on the internet.
I have searched for over two hours to find information about this gun. But i only found Target Champions, Target Hunters ect.

It looks exactly like a Classic Hunter but with combat stocks. My guess is that a limited run of them might have been made to a special order.

Looks a lot like one of the many revolvers S&W made exclusively for export. Was it a foreign web site where you found the pictures?

Great question for some of the real experts ( NOT including yours truly ) on the forum to help you. And BTW, welcome to the forum from North Dakota

Thank you for the replies, and the welcome.
It is sold in germany and it comes from belgium i think.

Welcome to the FORUM! It looks pretty cool to me. I would prefer target stocks myself. Love unfluted cylinders. I have a 683-3 myself. It is a everyday normal 1. Bob

I have a couple of 686's and really like them. They are extremely accurate and reliable. Great field revolvers as well as on the range.

FWIW
