A gun shop about a half hour from my house had a 1 Day Only, Cash or Local Check Only, Used Handgun sale today. I have never known of this shop to discount all used guns like that. I had stopped there 3 weeks ago and checked out a used, 3 inch S&W 686-6 they had. I had also looked it over a couple weeks before that when they first took it in. It was nice and very tempting at $595.99. At 20% off that price it was more than tempting. I called the afternoon before and verified they still had it. Because of the sale, the clerk said they couldn’t set it back for me, so I hit the road this morning at 8:30 so I could be there pretty close to opening time.
Its a fairly large shop and I got there shortly after 9:00. They didn’t look real busy.
Got there and picked up the 686 right off. Looked it over, just briefly, since I had fondled it twice previously and started the paperwork. As I was filling it out, the sales guy asked if I was the guy who inquired about the 686 via Facebook. It wasnt me. After discount the revolver was $476, and was $516 out the door. When I got home I found the fired cartridge in its envelope, under the foam in the case. The test fire date was June 8, 2015. June 8 is my birthday. After all the blabber, here it is
I like the 686 and this will join my 2.5 inch 686-6 and 4 inch no dash
