Why I'm Selling My New Smith & Wesson 686 for an Old Smith & Wesson 686

The internal lock on my Performance Center Smith & Wesson 686 failed. Older guns don't have internal locks.

Those of you that state to just remove the locking mechanism and start the name calling like "idiot" and "noob" are very short-sighted and well... not very bright in my opinion. The point that the guy is trying to make is that he spent premium for a S&W thus why should he have to modify the weapon to make it work in an acceptable fashion? Oh and you "smart people" that remove the mechanism void the warranty (I called and asked S&W).

@hogsmaws Put the lock back in if you need to use the warranty.

Name of you channel should be "why im selling my" do you have any guns? Or any that work?....lol good vid though.

@Peaceandwellness Jesus supports them why should I oppose Jesus? He's the Living Creator God.

Bans never work and actually you are supporting the HARM of more people than if everyone was required to own at least one weapon - look up the facts on the matter before you take a stupid and harmful position against mankind.

@Cabanas751Dunhill Please do not support this as guns are bad and kill people. Please vote to ban all the guns so there will be no more crime. Only police should have guns.

Guns are bad and only police should have them, This video seems a little on the al queda side.

Please dear God do not be a homegrown terrorist.

Big sis says terrorist could be anyone or anywhere.

If everyone would turn in their guns then there would be

no crime. God bless everyone and don't forget to vote

for the gun ban.

@TheShooting2 Hope not when you NEED it to fire!

I had a mag once die in the freezing cold after about 7-10K rounds through it over that one year - Guess what - It went bye bye

Great! Just when I was bragging to my friends about my new 686, I run across your video. Took mine to the range today and really love it. I don't really shoot a lot and don't claim to be a marksman but I was so impressed with the accuracy of this gun. I have the 686P (seven shot), and I was able to hit 5 out of 7 cans from 25 yds, which is great for me. I guess from now on I'll be wondering if my gun will lock up on me unexpectantly. Still, I love the gun!

agreed. Smith has made a horrible decision in changing the classic. I cannot agree with you more. I WAS a loyal Smith man until they started using inferior materials then the God-forsaken internal locks. It's a travesty. There should at least be an option of NOT having that hideous hole over the cylinder release. Did I say travesty? Good vid.

Simply remove the lock. Someone on the Smith & Wesson forums sells a plug to go in the hole left by removing the lock. Problem solved.
