Here is my 686-5 4" 7 shot.

Here is a 686 no dash 2 1/2 in. that I just picked up a week or so back. This will be a Christmas gift for my oldest son.

What kind of grips are on your 4in barrel? I feel like they'd be great on my 5in 686 plus pro

This is my favorite go-to gun.

My 686P-6 - Although it has the dreaded IL, it's still a nice gun.

What are the grips?

The only camera I have available is a cell phone which does not take good pics.
Mine looks exactly like yours, no dash except for the "M". I bought it new in 1986. Its only had about 1/2 dz. rounds thru it by me plus what the factory did when the "M" was stamped in it.
I usually take it with me when I go camping or travel packing it in luggage or a box with other stuff. Its like new, I have the original box, receipt and all other papers and 2 speed loaders.

.357, your gun is a beauty but I would love to know where you got the patches?

Nothing fancy but gets the job done...

Here's my 686 4" with factory black finish I use in IDPA. The grips are Spegel Extended Boot Grips. While not custom fit to the gun, the fit is so precise that custom fitting would not have been any better. The gun has been to the Performance Center for their Master Action Job. The shine on the cylinder in the second picture is where the PC chamfered the charge holes.

Frank, I got these patches at Campaign Casuals. You'll find some neat patches on that site. Hunting Club Military Patches

Thanks for the compliment.
