I'm looking to add a Model 586 to my collection (currently have a 3" 686 Plus and a 640 Pro Series). I'd like a 2 1/2 or 3in. Not a safe queen; one to carry and take to the range. What can I expect to pay. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That is a leading question. Depending on condition a 586 can cost you anywhere from $450 to $750 or more.

These are much less common than the 686s of the same barrel lengths, especially the 3". I'd guess at least high three figures for a 2.5" and more for a 3", if you can find one.

586 in 2 1/2" or the even rarer 3"? Big $$$...they don't show up often. There were some of each made in the mid 90's but not much. I was lucky enough to come across a 3" a while back and had it lettered...one of 108 in the run it came from. There was at least one other run but I would guess the total production at less than 400. There are probably more 2 1/2" but not a lot of those either!
I saw a 2 1/2" used and no box on GB lately that was nice but a shooter...the seller wanted too much and it didn't sell, seems like he wanted $1200 or so.
On the other hand you can find the 586 3" PC most of the time. It is a matte finish lock gun, very nice but at least $1K or more.
Good luck in your search and post if you come up with something.

M586, 2-1/2" barrel
Scarce as hen's teeth, my search took 14 months on 4 auction sites. In three weeks I found a M586 2.5" barrel, M629 6" unfluted cylinder, M29-2 4" barrel unfired with presentation case. I owed my wife big time. The M586 was "Buy Now for $750" with box, docs, and had been fired 6 times (all cylinders were dirty with barely visible turn "mark").
By comparison, there are lots of M686 with 2-1/2" barrel available.
After my spending spree she eventually received nickel M19s with 2.5" and 6" barrels to go with here father's inherited 4". Shooting wives are wonderful people
