What is your SKU number?

Will provide additional info upon receiving.
 
Hmmmm, I have a bad memory and can't remember RSR having a Light Hunter, could you be thinking of this one from Lew Horton?

Well as others have mentioned, we need to see picture's of what you have for value and any further info. Price can vary quite a bit on condition, matching box and paperwork...
 
I have a 686 PC Hunter , 1 of 152 . It doesn't look a bit like the above ad , msg not sure what the op has . The product code on mine is 170079 . Looking in the bible , I didn't see any mention of a " Light" Hunter .

RSR did have some "Light Hunter" models made by the PC, but the only ones I'm aware of were the M625 Light Hunter and the M629 Light Hunter (there may be others), but I personally don't remember a M686 Light Hunter.

These were an answer to the Lew Horton Hunter models....

I have one. Probably for about 20 years, now. Got it second hand, so no box. Will have to hunt for photos, they may be all locked up in an old P'bucket album. As for value: Put it on auction and see what happens....

ETA:

Post #35 in this thread has a middling quality photo of my 686 Light Hunter well down in the post. Better shot of the range than the revolver, but you can see the resemblance to the Model 629, et al., Hunters:

There is the light hunter and they made around 200 If I recall correctly. Your hunter is the dash 4 with the 7 shot unfluted cylinder with full slab sided barrel correct? I owned one years ago and they are a beautiful 686.

686-4 light hunter pictures

my 686-4 looks like the picture from the cruiser guy on a l frame 7 shot non-fluted cylinder. having some trouble loading pics. i can send them to anyone direct from my gmail. [email protected] i will send photos of gun and original box.
 
Gumpys , that's mine for sure . It's definitely a hunk of metal , up there with a 627-0 . There was an Earl Minot included in which he states 152 made . Maybe they made more of the non PC models . I have a pretty nice spread of PC semi-autos , this is my first PC revolver . I'm indebted to the member that sold it to me , this is one that's getting buried with me .
