Looks proper dude. I scored a 686-1. Right place at the right time. rubber and original wood grips. Im going to go pick up this cloth right now. Thanks
Good lordy!! that is a fantastic cleaning job you did there; I like the older Smiths with the pin hammer they look sexier..I got a 6" version 686-3 ..named MAXINE(yes!I name my guns)..and her big brother 629-4 BUBBA;and BIG MAMA 460XVR...saving my coin to get a Big Daddy 500...I am a sucker for a wheel gun
Nice clean up. It looks brand new. Take care of that baby and it will last forever. I have had my 686-4 w/4" barrel for about 25 years. It is my favorite and it will never fail. I like that I can use 38 special to practice with.
@RyeGrog1, the (-4) means that it was the 4th. generation/change in design. The first ones had 5 screws holding it together. This change went to 3 screws, something like that. I found the info. on a S&W site.
@InspireImages oh yea? based on what? I bet you just googled "S&W lock" and you read about the 1 or 2 people who had thier guns lock up.. or about how the new steel used in the triggers/hammer is brittle... do you own a smith? have you even shot one? hell, have you ever touched a gun before? I agree that the old models are much nicer, but the new smith and wesson guns are by NO MEANS "junk".. S&W has made some compromises over the years but they still make some of the best guns you can buy!
@v5u7sulh2 Perhaps my statement may have been a bit harsh, sorry to pee in your corn flakes! The reason I found this video is because we will be trading in a new S&W for an older style one. But I am glad you are happy with yours but for us compromises in a carry weapon is just not acceptable.
My 686 is about 15 years old. On the side it says 686-4. I was told the 4 means that it's the length of the barrel. But when I used a measuring tape, it was 5. Does anyone have any info?
i love the GP100, but i also have maaaaaaad love for the s&w 686. got alot of trigger time on these....they are sooo fuckin sexy, make ya wanna buss a gun nut just lookin at it LOL....theres one in the shop i go to and im gonna try and pick it up...yours is super clean man i love it
As much as I love GP100s, a 686 without that blasted key lock is a gem. My dad has a 586, I will NEVER let that out of the family, not a chance in hell.
comparered to the newer models... I prefer the older ones like yours. stamped logos as opposed to laser etched on the newer models, and im a bigger fan of hammer mounted firing pins as well. the newer ones have internal firing pins and I just don't fancy those very much at all... great gun. never get rid of it for anything newer, those are the best! great vid Mike. peace.
Tou're right! That's one "sweeeeet" gun. I am also lucky to have one just like it, and in my opinion, the older style model 686 has it over the ones in current production. The older style frame seems nicer especiially noted is the absence of the infamous "lawyer lock" that has been noted to jam. By the way, if you plan to do extended periods of shooting with it, you may want to keep the rubber grips on as it is much easier on the hands.
the bbl not being lined up is becuz who did them fucked up n u can take them to a gun smith n fix it all s&w i was told u can change the bbl out my dads friend has a 357 n 44mag with 2 ,4,8, in bbl for both guns
Wow, what a gorgeous revolver Mike. I did not expect that when I first heard, its beauty, nothing else to say. That being an older 686, I don't think you will have any issues at all. Built like a tank and the action like butter. I plan on filming at least 2 videos this week after the gun show edits I need to do and then get my VR up for your contest buddy. Every collection needs a good mid size revolver in it and I think you got a fine one there my friend. Range time now, lol. Very Nice. : )
lookin good bro, im pretty sure the majority of the smith triggers and hammers have that tarnished look cause its they type of material they use, mine is like that as well
That is one of those guns that makes would be thieves wet themselves at the sight of it, gleaming in the ambient light. Lookin' Excellent, Sir. Keep up the good work Brother!
@willwood487 Yea man you are right the old guns are built better i think! I try to find the older ones if i can. Seems like the new guns have a lot of problems!
You will love this pistol my buddy has one in 44 mag and his dad has 1 in 357 and there both great shooters and just feel like a natural extension of your arm when shooting it
Nice gun Bro!! Congrats. If there is hard to remove lead try a smaller brass brush and wrap some chore boy around it. Removes all traces of lead out of the cylinder and barrel in seconds
I'm flagging this video for poor weapons saftey. Due to the fact that I'm a total loser with a chronic masturbation problem, I won't actually tell you that it was me who flagged it. Shit, I just screwed this up didn't I?
@bisquik3006 Lol Yea the gun is only as safe as the person behind it! Your smith is a beast! You can get help with that problem ya know! It's called a Women! LOL
Enjoy the gun like it is now as much as you can, cuz when you shoot, you gon shoot it a LOT!! And after that, people will think that the gun is blued, and not nickel ;-)
I agree, Absolutly Georgeous. I have a 686 no dash 6" and a dash five 2.5" . My no dash has original wood grips. You'll like wood grips.
I also have stainless Springer 1911.
Nice guns. Thanks for posting
