I have a S&W stainless mountain gun in .41 Magnum that will be the last gun I'd ever sell.
That's one of my 'grail' guns...a good all-around caliber if you handload your own and in a packable overall sized revolver too.I have a S&W stainless mountain gun in .41 Magnum that will be the last gun I'd ever sell.

All the more reason i've got plans for a 4" 586. The guy at my lgs is a die hard Ruger guy like me and he has 6 blued Smiths in 357 mag as personal guns 3 being 586's. 2 model 27's and a UNFIRED 4" model 19 from 1978. He also has a couple model 29's and a model 25.View attachment 925649
I waited a long time to find a decent 586 or 686 and this one presented it'self to me just this year. 686-4 pre-lock. A police officer traded it in on something and when I checked it over, it was so tight and the trigger was, oh so nice! I wouldn't put it down, I called my wife and told her I needed to get this thing.
She said "if you need it go ahead and get it! "
That's why we've been married for 41 years.
Man, this thing will shoot. I do wish it was a 4" but these are scarce around here in any condition. This is only the 2nd 5-686 I've seen here in 10 years and now i know why.
I bought it a week before the store was broken into and 17 of their hand guns were stolen in 48 seconds flat.
You snooze, you loose! I'm glad I didn't
Blued, Stainless, you can't go wrong with either one.
in actuality I wanted to just shoot the piss out of this one so I went with a new gun and warranty.

Thankfully it's pretty hard to write those when the guns are tough to come by.Something about a 586/686 with pretty stocks. Make a man write bad checks!
I prefer fixed sites.
