Hey guys for the last few months I have been looking for a 4 inch model 686. Without much luck, but this week I came across a 4 inch model 66 sitting in the academy display with a bright yellow clearance sticker for $650.
A four inch gp100 runs 750 and a six inch 686+ is about 770 or so.
I'm just looking for a little feedback on what you guys think about the options here.
There is a gun show this weekend at Lawton Ok but Everytime I think about going to a gun show I spend my weekend in communion with the Gremlins in my car. And Lawton is one of my least favorite drives in this whole state. I would hate to go all that way and not have it pay off, I think that gun show does make it's way back to Tulsa in a couple of weeks and that's a better drive for me.
So any thoughts is the model 66 a good deal, or will I have to worry that it won't be robust enough for magnum loads, should I just suck it up and get the longer 686+. Anyone have any experience with the Lawton gunshow.
I haven't really bought any guns on line and I really like having the opportunity to handle it before I decide to make a purchase like that.
