Went to the range to test the new revolver and found a great collection of classic revolvers in the consignment cabinet. Most appeared to be relatively unused. I only got this one since I don't have any Colt revolvers. I know it is not one of their highly collectible classics but it shoots very nice and I think it will prove to be a gun that will outlast me.

vpivinylspinner: Both revolvers look very nice and quite respectable. I own neither, but have considered each at earlier times. A two gun day is certainly different from a one gun day. You must have a certain sense of "fullness".

I think I am on some kind of .357 Magnum kick. Three new revolvers in the last four days. Could not pass up this monster S&W 686-2 with adjust front and rear sites. Excellent condition and should be a lot of fun..

noob question; how well do you recover from kickback with such a looong barrel?

You know with some 110 gr. .357 Sierra BlitzKing/WW296 loads, that would be a dandy prairie poodle gun within 125 yards. Let me know if you ever get tired of it.

Much better than with a shorter barrel. More weight = less perceived recoil/kick. Longer barrel = less blast.
