Smith & Wesson 386 Night Guard on American Guardian - Gun Locker

[lmfzzz]

Whats the advantage again? Give me a glock 21 any day and I'll show you a target with 14 bigger, faster fired, accurate holes in it

[aikido10]

@lmfzzz I'll give you the Glock and I'll shoot the Wheel gun....and lets see who has the first malfunction.

[lmfzzz]

@aikido10 Sure, but first let's let a truck run over each gun, throw them out of a plane, and then put them in the ocean for two weeks. I think you would lose a hand as I was putting rounds on target. Just sayin.

add some hogue monogrips and it's perfect.

Hickok could hit something dead center from 200 yards off with this

I removed the grip and found a screw in the handle that seems to adjust the trigger pull. Am I correct? The screw seems to adjust the tension of the leaf spring which is in the handle. The trigger pulls much smoother now.

[suzettespencer]

Yeah, that double action trigger is terrible.

i've heard that the speed loaders are problematic and the plastic used is prone to cracking between the cylinders. is this true? why not just make matching speedloaders w/ this gun?

[leeradio13]

i hear this model 386 is also available in stainless finish, is there a website or photo you guys could send me? thanks, i'm sold! :)

[HYBRIDCOMBATIVES]

@leeradio13 Yes. I have a 686 + and the 7 round speedloaders from HKS arent worth a shit. THe walls are too thin and the plastic cracks. I was using it for competition and had to fall back on my GP100 for better,faster reloads.

"Align the 3 white dots"? Umm, theres no dots on the rear sight. Just the front is the white tritium dot

Only thing I added to mine is Houge grips with fingergrooves, bigger grip and I like it alot better. I didnt like the factory grip and wondered why smith didnt use houge from the factory

[nsane992002]

I have the 327 Nightguard and I love it. The recoil i not severe to me though.Not at all. Very well made guns!

[smurfstomper131]

I have this gun and I carry it everyday. It is a fantastic firearm.

.357 out of that would be no better than a .38 special. There would be alot of unburnt powder from the .357, so there's excessive flash with no real benefits. It's be best to stick to .38, will accomplish the same thing, and act the same, but with less flash and recoil out of a snubbie like this (.357 has a place, but that's in 4" barrels or longer).

[dreamofher665]

@coltpax I agree but I think i'll do some more research.

Looks perfect for concealed carry...GB
