Picked up a new hand cannon recently

Smith & Wesson 686+ Deluxe
.357mag with a 3" barrel. It's a 7-shot revolver. Super solid and a lot of fun to shoot! Anyone else into revolvers?

That's a nice wheel gun. I've wanted a .357 for a while, and a .22 mag revolver.

That one does 38 special as well as 357, right? 38 are great for range days or just plinking.

That's a sweet gun, congrats!

Yes, it will fire any .38 special rounds, which is nice. I have an older S&W .38 revolver as well, so I keep a good supply of .38sp around. They are definitely easier to fire and cheaper than the .357mag rounds are.

I had a .357 back when, took it to the firing range and after 200 rounds it was a little toasty. Has so much fun thou.

What sucked was cleaning it felt like I was at work again. After each Mil training evolution, it was back to the Armory to clean all your weapons and gear before going home.

Is that rated for bears?

I don't know, but when I fire it at the indoor range other people on the line look over to see what just got fired. It is definitely a high-powered round.

Very nice. Enjoy it.

Fine looking pistol. I have fired loaners, but never owned one.

Note to self, stay out of Low County’s boat uninvited.

One good thing about revolvers. They dont ever jam.

 

[bebops-ghost]

As one of my instructors said. Never say ....

True, but I did have a shell casing crack lengthwise as I fired it, and it got stuck in the cylinder until I could poke it through with a thin wooden dowel. Certainly not the gun's fault though.

That was a great scene

That movie was sad. Saddest part was the ending where Clint was trying to sing…

I love revolvers. Never had the privileged of shooting one, but one of my dream goals is to own a Webley-Fosbery.

Funky pistol there.

A nice new addition to my collection today with this 1911 Colt Commander in 9mm, can't wait to put some rounds through it
