What, were they sold out of 686's?
Honestly I don't like the "look" of the newer S&W revolvers. I have no doubt that the tolerances of the new models are amazing thanks to CNC and the steel is of the highest quality, but I just prefer the older models. I actually like the look of the Ruger GP100. Especially the 4" model. |
The GP's do look pretty boss. I thought about getting one or an SP101 but then I had a BUNCH of bad experiences with Ruger revolvers, which blew because some of the worst were with one of my most favorite guns, an old .38 only Speed Six

I feel you. I've already decided that my next gun purchase maybe another S&W trade in from Gander Mtn. They have a 5946 that is sort of screaming for me to take it home so it can live with my Model 10, Model 66, and Model 910.

I loved when they put the 520/620 out, got the classic Smith aesthetic while still having the 7 shot. Of course they're both gone now but bringing back the 66 is nice too. In the end though it's like you said, different strokes and so on. |
Just got this from UPS:
3" GP-100, 5-shot 44 Special with an unfluted cylinder http://i655.photobucket.com/albums/u...psubfrm91d.jpg |
Now that's a nice spinner, son! For some reason I'm particularly intrigued by 3" barrels.. not sure why, but just about all of them look real good. Likin' the chambering, too - Forgot they got those in .44 Sp.
All-told, real nice one! |
