I just picked up a 686p. I definitely want custom grips. Great gun. Mine has the 3" barrel.

i was thinking of getting one but whats best the long barrel or medium or short?

@Midnightwolf991 It depends on what you want to do with it... carry, hunt, etc. A shorter barrel will be lighter and easier to conceal but less accurate. The longer barrels will be more accurate, but bigger and heavier.

Nice revolver. I just bought one. I am waiting for my permissions of the gouvernement. To bad i have to wait for a month or 5.

Thanks for sharing with us your beautiful revolver. I believe yours is one of the very early no dash, no lock Smiths Yours was made somewhere from 1980 to 1986. The jewelling and grips enhances the looks (to me anyway). A very fine weapon and I hope you will treasure it and one day pass it on to your son (or daughter).

@Ultratron100 Thank you, I appreciate your thoughts. I do treasure it, and it will definitely be passed on to my son one day. But right now he's only 3 months old, so it's all mine to enjoy for many years to come. : )
