Yeah, that was a funny scene. But the gun Clint pulled out of his pants was a single action of some type - probably a made for Hollywood "Buntline Special."I seem to recall Lt.Speer (Clint Eastwood) pulling one of those out of his pants in City Heat.
I remember when the 4-position front sights came out on their long barrelled silhouette pistols (back in the 1980’s) I saw a new one in a gun store case in .357 that looked like a 686, but I never fired one to see what the adjustable front sight could do.
Pretty gun!
Stay safe
Put the standard front sight on it and it would be the twin of my first revolver... That is awesome...Unfluted cylinder version. Bought it new in the late 80's and still have it.View attachment 813898

They did make a Model 686 and a 586 Silhouette with the adjustable front sight. My dream gun would be a Model 27 Silhouette.
Seeing the .357 with the 4-position silhouette sight made me wonder whether the .357 had the whack to topple the 50lb rams...
