New Acquistion!
https://www.smith-wesson.com/firearms/model-686-plus-1
Have not shot it yet, but am sure it will shoot well! BTW: 6 inch heavy barrel and 7 shot capacity!

Very nice.
My wife has one with a 2 1/2 inch barrel. Built like a tank. Best wishes for a long and happy union.

The 6 inch barrel just makes sense to Me. Nicely balanced in my opinion.
Well built gun too! ( Except for the Clinton Lock!) Which won't be a problem! I'll post Range report soon as Weather Permits here!

I agree, the 6” is the best balanced followed by the 4”. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
