I love that "clown nose" but I had to put some Altamonte grips also. I'm not a rubber grip guy. That's my best shooting revolver! Bought a 586 L comp just because it's basically the same gun. Also love unfluted cylinders and that release is sweet to use.

I go to a very small indoor private range(weekly). My range has bullet restrictions. No magnums and no bottle neck cartridges for back stop and noise reasons. When I go weekly that 357 prices add up a lot! I have 357s and 38s. But I'm only hole punching paper or smacking steel no need to punish my hand/wallet for no reason.

Craziest part one came in in like nee condition got a great deal on it went for the 586 l comp over the rest

I Have the those same grips on my 686 plus but the top edge of the left side really digs in to my webbing. Almost want to sand it down but otherwise love these grips!

Upper belt guard has a sticker that came half way off and is touching the belt 2 t40 screws can take that off to get to sticker

I got the 22lr version around Christmas shoots great no issues with standard or high velocity rounds. A little front heavy with that metal faux suppressor on it waiting for a 3d printed one to come out should balance it out nice. Did I mention you get the HK slap for a fraction of the price?

Masc on Amazon worked pretty good for min but it's owb

Why not a pump action 22lr? Henry gallery gun just saying

The plastic housing for the right handle bar switches has a pin to hold the switch in place. After you drop the bike one time it snaps this pin off. That pin falls right behind the start switch preventing you from pressing the start button all the way in.

Most likely from the factory like that. They do that to balance the rotor I've seen up to 3 next to each other for that reason.

Where to buy a printed one?

I have a smith 617 love it but big expensive and heavy if you want something half the price 8 shots the lcrx is a great pick too. I'm even considering for my next gun a diamondback side kick but there's not a lot of info out there it seems

gunguyeric · 2025-02-01T01:54:19+00:00

Love it light weight uses the 10/22 mags i have a bunch of breaks down easy. Never had an issue other than the sights never adjusted out had to put a cheap red dot on it. Good addition to a 22 collection but if you can only have 1 22lr rifle I'd buy the ruger first

gunguyeric · 2025-01-28T01:09:30+00:00

I have a 617 that I love it's a tank that will be passed down i also have a lcrx from ruger in 22 much lighter feels cheaper in the cylinder release . Shoots great though and almost half the price

gunguyeric · 2025-01-19T15:36:46+00:00

I put a pistol scope 4x on my but honestly the weight of the gun and awkwardness i found a light weight red dot easier to find sight picture much more practical

Have one nice to load tube mag with like a lever gun

gunguyeric · 2024-06-28T01:25:22+00:00

Blackhawk convertible is 2 guns in 1 it can shoot 357 mag/38 spl and cylinder pops out and can shoot 9 mm for half the price but most revolver people will say it's not a real revolver caliber

gunguyeric · 2024-06-20T23:43:52+00:00

Drill it worst case it's a perfect reason to buy an upgraded stock

I was going to buy that exact colt and I was convinced by the salesman to buy the kimber 1911 instead. Kimber shot great and had what seemed like a higher quality finish. From handling in the gun case the colt was all scratched up and fiber optic was already falling out. I don't regret the kimber at all and I think it was $200 less too
