New B here. Used to be in Law Enforcement. Curtailed quite a few years ago (saw too many bad things and decided at an early age I wasn't meant for the street line of work, takes a very special person for that job).
Anyway, I carried a Ruger Security Six stainless, but always lusted after an Smith.
Fast forward. Life has been good, I have a good job and professional career, so for my 50th I bought a very nice 686 from a retired police officer I have known and respected for years (he also the father of a friend of mine who happens to be the sheriff, so no I didn't get TOO far away ).
It is a S&W 686-3 stainless. Had been shot one time to qualify. I know the history of this gun quite well. Can anyone give any idea on general DOM?
Also working with a 686-2, same question on DOM?
SO far, this gun is scary accurate. I am a better than average shot with long guns, but this pistol, makes me look GOOD!!!!
It is way above what I could do with my Ruger Sec. Six.
Thanks for any help.
