Hey guys,
I just picked up a 586 no dash 6 in for 350 bucks. Its by no means a safe queen, it has some dings and scratches, but the trigger is just as smooth as my 686 no dash. I bought it for carrying in the wood and what not, I realize a 4 in might be better for this, but here in WI barrel has to be 5.5 in to carry during deer hunting. How do you guys think I did? Pictures to follow Tuesday when I pick her up. Oh yeah the serial number starts with AENXXXX, can anyone be so kind as to help me with a birth date? Thanks

Peter

That's a good deal for a working 586. Best guess on the ship date is spring 1984.

Wonder why?

I'd say $350 for a 586 is pretty good. Hard to find them for less than $500 anymore it seems.

I know there's a reason you haven't posted any
pics of your new gun, but I can't imagine what it is!

Wow sorry this took so long, computer took a **** and I spent the money on ammo instead

 

[PeterK]

It is a great shooting gun just as I expected it to be!

Hey I think you did Great. In Ga. where I hunt I carry a 6 inch revolver. For whatever reason I shoot this gun a lot better. Again Congrats on your new shooter! Ray
