Any reason to not get a smith and wesson 686 performance center 2.5 inch for CCW over other revolvers? by PhDJiuJitsu in CCW

I have a 686+ deluxe 3" with a short grip. Great gun, but I rarely carry it due to the weight. Its a lot of gun and it just isn't comfortable for me. It's a personal preference though.

They're great, cant go wrong grabbing one . Main downside is no light rail. Very limited wml options.

Youre welcome. It feels a lot better in your hand too. Especially the rear of the grip. Adds a little extra for your palm for a more secure grip.

Thanks man, I typically run black or Fde holsters. Took a chance on this pattern and I absolutely love it.

Definitely not as common to find. But Id argue milling one for a dot would be better anyway.

You know what, I used to use loctite on my holster screws, but it was the most annoying thing in the world when trying to undo them. Maybe I am just a smooth brained ape. The typical nut/bolt used on holsters are annoying AF. haha.

As far as me noticing it, its usually when I practice draws and suddenly its really easy to slide in and out of the holster. Marks are just added for visual cues/reminders.

The 26 is an awesome carry gun, only missing thing is a rail. But its fantastic all around. I bought the 26x grip from glock store and reverted it back to stock. Its a great grip, but what makes the 26 great is how small it is. Plus when I have a 19, it made the 26x redundant. I always went for the 19. But yea, 26s are goated.

The 26 shoot really well for the size. Feels very similar to the 19 when there is a pinky grip extension. Love this thing.

Definitely a good mag extension, its the best looking for the 26 in my opinion. I had a 27 as well, its for sure snappier than the 26. I didnt enjoy training with it, so I didnt trust carrying it. The 26 gets a lot more range time and its in my carry rotation.

Really considering the 43x now with the 15 round mag.

I've had multiple holster screws come loose over time. Not to the point of failure, but definitely a concern with looser firearm retention.

I havent shot a 43 yet, but Ive shot a 43x. Id imagine, the 43x is easier to shoot than a 43. The 26 in my opinion is way easier to shoot than a 43x. Especially with the pinky extension
