My favorite model is the 686. A lot of the S&W old timers don’t care for a full underlug and stainless steel but I think they are revolver perfection. The first S&W revolver I bought was a used 4 inch, no dash. It was wearing Pachmyer presentation grips and came with 44 rounds of 38 special and 44 rounds of 357 magnum. That was in 2014. Since then I have managed to accumulate a few more.
The 6 inch is also a no dash while the 2.5 and 3 inch are dash 6’s.
I prefer to shoot 38 specials in guns chambered for 38 Special and magnums in guns chambered for magnums. The 686 isn’t going to split a forcing cone and can easily handle anything I load in it.
Anyone else like 686’s?
