Look at how beautifully he has polished them I promise you that mirror finish is not from the factory it is achieved by hours of hand polishing, that is the definition of a labor of love
@@mr2275cur Hi Big Swoll 58 . I have a question for you . When it comes to ammo for a S & W .357 what size bullet would you recommend for self-defense & home protection ? I'm speaking with regards to the grain . What I'm trying to say /ask is .... would it be correct to say that the Higher the grain # , the more "Power" the bullet will have on impact ?And finally , which would you recommend re: the issue of stopping power ,a full metal jacket or hollow heads ? Your response would be truly welcomed and appreciated , Thank You .
@@clementjohnson2666 Well Sir, I am not a ballistics expert at all. Personally, I think any .357 magnum round will be effective. I won't give a specific recommendation though. I don't know enough about it to do so. Respectfully...!
Beautiful collection. I have 2 myself. Those appear to be unfired from what I can see. No powder burns on the front of the cylinders. I so wish guns were made like this now. All you ever see now is plastic striker fired wonder 9’s. There no arguing that these are fine works of arts.
Thank you Sir. All of these are fired routinely. I just clean them before storage. I am a revolver guy, but I do like "some" of the polymer strike-fired guns. They all kinda blend together after a while though.
As an avid S&W fan, I was Truly impressed by this video!!! You broke down a lot of questions about the changes made on MY FAVORITE MODEL 686 .357 Magnum!!! It was extremely helpful and enjoyable to watch and listen to you break down the difference,made over the years. Thanks for your time and I’d like to see a video on how you polished up all of these absolutely positively beautiful revolvers.
I recently came to possess a 686-3. I had always leaned towards Ruger, but am very impressed with the fit and finish of the S&W, it’s like a fine Swiss watch. Thank you for the history of the 686, very enjoyable to watch.
Mr. Stuart, I can't believe I just saw you comment. I apologize for missing it and not responding. Congratulations on you first 686. S&W revolvers are very different animals than Rugers', even though Rugers' are great guns too.
Great presentation, excellent specimens. The "L" series, to -4, have been my personal favorites, with the 681 class in various law enforcement livery, the latest interest. All of the L class have been goin up in value, including the relatively short-lived -5 models, which are leaving the "bargain" arena. Sub'd.
Thank you for a very informative video. I'm a big fan of S&W Revolvers,.I own several. I don't yet have an L Frame. I'm looking to get a 686 4 inch. Thanks again for the education. I subscribed to your channel. Be well.
Oh my!! What a bunch of striking guns there! I fairly recently purchased my first 686+ and was introduced to one of my current favorites to shoot. All of my other S&W pieces are of the blued and Mountain Gun series. I should be receiving my recently purchased 57-5 .41mag Mtn Gun later this week. That completes my blued Gun collection. I'll turn my attention to stainless models. Thank you for stoking my fire for these fantastic works of art!
@@mr2275cur do you shoot all or just some of your collection? I do not see much if any cylinder drag marks on your pieces. I am fastidious about cleaning after range time and have had to come to peace with the drag line being about the only marks I have on mine. I followed your refinishing video series and that helped to remove some surface rust on the back strap of my .45 Colt which I was not aware was starting. I caught it in time to save a bigger job. Thanks for those tips!
I get asked that question a lot. The answer is YES; I shot all the guns i own. Some more often than others. That cylinder drag line doesn't just come from shooting the g. It also comes from opening and closing the cylinder and indexing the it. So properly doing that will reduce the length and prominence of the drag line.@@WixRanch
Thank you for this great video. I'm in the market for a 686 and glad to seen this video. Learned a lot in 18 minutes that would have taken longer had I known what to look for. Take care.
Great video brother. Wonderful research. I just inherited a 1987 S/W MOUNTAIN LITE 7 SHOT 357 MAG THAT CHANGED MY MIND FOR 1911 FOR THE GO TO GUN. COMING FROM A MARINE THAT SOMETHING. MOUNTAIN LITE 4 INCH BARREL FIT AND FINNISH IS NEAR PERFECTION. THE TRULY SPECTACULAR FEATURE IS IT ONLY WEIGHS 18 ONCES FOR A 7 ROUND BEAST IS SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR SURE. I CAN CARRY IT ALL DAY WITHOUT MEETING ANY WILDLIFE OR BEARS. I QUALIFED EXPERT IN THE MARINE CORPS SO I KNOW WHAT IM TALKING OUT OF KNOWLEDGE. I can keep it right on target till empty. Smith stoped making them because the medal is hard to work with an expensive price. When I took it to my local gun shop and I could see the owner loved it too. Never fired, books and records , still in oil paper from the factory. The owner offered me 2000 trade or 1600 USD CASH. I SAID NO THANK YOU AND TOOK IT TO THE RANGE. SHOT IT 30 TIMES, TOOK IT HOME AND MARINE CLEANED IT AND PUT IT AWAY IN GUN SAFE. YOU EVER FIRE ONE
Back 2 years later. Just picked up a 6" 686-2 with the speed loader cutout grips in a local gun shop. Wanted an old model because I like them as you do. All my old school 14 15s 17 18 25 27 28s 29s are all pinned and the 357s are all recessed cylinders. Your 686s are spectacular.
You have a fabulous collection. I also love the looks of S&W SS revolvers--especially with the wooden grips. I have a question for you (assuming you still answer questions). Would you do a video on how you clean the chambers and front end of the cylinder on SS revolvers? I have a terrible time getting the chambers totally clean.
@mr2275cur I recently purchased a 686 with no dash. Is there any way to determine year of manufacture? I haven't picked it up yet but I assume there is no visible serial number on these revolvers correct?
@@claytonkeates2614 First let me say congratulations on your purchase. It sounds like this might just be your first 686 and possibly your first S&W evolver. There is a way to determine the year or manufacture on them. You'll need the SN to narrow it down. And "NO" the gun has the SN stamped in two places on the gun. One the bottom of the butt frame, and the other on the frame under the yoke.
@mr2275cur ok good stuff thanks! And thank you, I'm thrilled to have gotten my hands on it. They didn't have it very long but I hot there first luckily! Haha. It IS my first SW. I think these are among the nicest revolvers made. I picked up a Colt trooper mark III last year with a blued finish that really got me into the revolver club haha.
@@claytonkeates2614 cool. Wheel guns are cool and addictive, it wouldnt surprise to see getting more of them or others. Let me know the SN letters and I’ll try to identify the manufacture year for you.
If I had your collection, I’d go nuts figuring out which of my babies was the most beautiful. It would be interesting to know what the prices these pieces command these days.
Thank you Sir. It's not easy choosing a favorite. In fact it changes day-to-day according to my mood I guess. I'm not sure about what price they'd draw today, but I hope it's a little more than I paid.
Thank you Sir for the superb education! I have a 686 that needs some love, I am using yours for the GOLD standard. What is your prefered polish, hand polish ? Again great work. I have very few subscriptions and you are one of them!
Thank you Mr. Hartie for hte kind words and subbing. I like Mother's Mag and Aluminum Polish; and definitely prefer hand polishing. You can't make too many ugly mistakes hand polishing.
You understand what a fine revolver should be made of those Sir are some Beautiful revolvers that was a great video and you know your Smith and Wesson wheel gun
In 1983 for my 21st Birthday I bought a S&W 6" 686 No Dash for my first pistol. My best friend bought the 4". While both guns had the same rear sight, his had that big Orange front sight but mine has a nicer smaller grey fron sight. Absolutely love the way this pistol shoots and can hit a dime at 50', no problem.
That's more your pistol skill than the gun. I can hit one at 50' too, but it'd take me a few shoots to zero in on it. Believe it or not, but I've yet to see one with a gray insert front sight.
I would buy either one of the two on the left in a heartbeat. I sold my 686 (1980 version) and it's one of life's regrets. Mostly, I just loved those big wood grips, a feature that S&W just doesn't offer any more on a 686.
They don't offer them any more on any of there revolvers. That's one the main things that made guns so beautiful. Now they only offer some "look-somewhat-a-likes" on a few models. SAD...
Hey Big, I understand your desire to have the -4 instead, but any version of a 686 is great to have. You can always buy, sell or trade to get the one you want; of just get a -4 to add to your collection. Thank you.
Gorgeous lot. Just got my first revolver, a 686 plus. Love it, however had to swap back to original rubberized grips instead of Altamont cherrywood... Was kicking the inside of my thumb like a mule when I shot .357 rounds LOL. Great video!
Thank you Unstoppable. I had a pair of on my 686-3 for a while. Shooting it wasn't bad. I just decided to find another pair of S&W originals for it. Plus I prefer the look.
I have a 1980 686 with a trigger job by a well known gunsmith. It was my dads gun,and used it for competition, 6 inch barrel,original box and every thing that came with it. Also it’s a no dash. Yeah this one’s special to me. I will say this, Roy Huntington was on that team,as well as a fellow cop with my dad.
If you don’t understand how much he loves these fine pieces, notice the gloves and the shine
Oh Yeah...!
Look at how beautifully he has polished them I promise you that mirror finish is not from the factory it is achieved by hours of hand polishing, that is the definition of a labor of love
@@googlechicken it takes 3 hours to get a gun like this
100%
Great video.
What a beautiful collection. The 686 has always been my favorite 357 revolver.
Thank you and ity's easy to understand why. They are really great guns, and definitely my favorite .357 too.
Absolutely. A gorgeous collection.

Thank you Sir. Mine too.
Man, those 4 inchers are just about the prettiest thing ever
Thank you man. I think so too…
Those are the most beautiful revolvers I've ever seen. Just wow.
Thank you. I put a lot of work in these babes.
I always wondered what the changes were per the dash increments. You answered that quite nicely. Thank you. Be well and may God bless.
Thank you Mr. Becket.. God Bless You Too...
I as you enjoy the old S&W over the new but also can say new is a fine product thanks for your video it is well worth the time to look at
Thank you.
The 686-6 Performance is spot on at 100 yards. The single action pull is feather light. Marvelous work of art! Bravo!
Thank you.

I bought a 686-3 4” from a retired neighbor about 15-yrs ago...luckiest/smartest gun purchase i ever made. What a beautiful piece of machinery!
You got that right. Lucky you.
Those revolvers have seen some polish before. :) Absolutely gorgeous collection dude.
Thank you DRAGONWAR. You are correct. I polished them because all of them had various degrees of finish issues when I bought them.
I recently came to possess a 686-3. I had always leaned towards Ruger, but am very impressed with the fit and finish of the S&W, it’s like a fine Swiss watch. Thank you for the history of the 686, very enjoyable to watch.

Thank you again Sir.
They are my pet favorites. Have two now!
Congratulations Mr. Steck. That's how i started. Then I had three; then four, then etc...

Can a 686 no dash fire any type of .357 ammo consisting of 125gr or 158gr or 140gr or 180gr
Beautiful collection, thanks for sharing.

Love them I have 2 no dash 6'' barrel not modified completely stock. My dad and I have owned them since 83 never had a problem with either!
Congratulations to you and your dad Mr. Robbins.. My dad wasn't a gun guy, so I never had the joy of sharing that experience with him.
