First Handgun S&W 686 , 3" Talo

[rtbaron]

First Revolver.....wanted a versatile revolver to shoot 38 and 357. Love the S&W 386.

I think it was a good choice.

Very nice! Can you show a pic of the grips from the rear? I'm trying to find a comparison of the thickness between Altamonts and factory combats.

Congrats

That looks real nice.. Hickok45 did a video with one just like it. 3" 7 shot right?

I just bought my first revolver as well. It's a 4" 586-3 that should be on the way tomorrow..
hehehe

Thank you, they do look thinner than the factory combats.

rtbaron, for a first revolver you picked one of the better ones. Remember that one Smith and Wesson is one to many and 10 is not enough

Rtbaron, that's a great first revolver. I was searching for one myself before deciding on a 586 Comp L. Aren't 3" guns great? They handle and balance well, and they have the full length ejector. I may keep looking for a 686 3"...

rtbaron,

Congrats. I just bought same one last week as well. I waiting for the background check before I can take deliver.

Got to say you made a great choice for your first handgun. Good shooting!

Very, very nice. The 3" barrel length is the most versaltile for a 38/357 that will be carried and shot. You will enjoy this revolver.

I purchased a new 686 plus this past weekend. After two range visits I need to reload more 38 ammo. Nice shooter!

BTW, anyone know where I might find those grips in the original image. I have the rubber grips.

Thanks

I believe they are made by Altamont.
