Revolver fans know the 686 as one of the best stainless .357 Magnums ever made, and this used 686-6 Plus has a 3 inch barrel that makes it handy to carry and fire. It comes with the factory box. The caliber is .357 Magnum, and a revolver chambered in it can also fire .38 Special, which gives you a mild option for practice.

A short barrel keeps the gun quick to bring up and easier on the belt. It gives up a bit of velocity compared with a longer tube, but at close range for defense or for field carry, plenty of people prefer it.

Revolvers are simple to run. You can look at the cylinder, see what is loaded and shoot without worrying about a magazine. For a first handgun or a backup to a pistol, they are hard to beat.

It is used and sold as described. Check the photos for finish and the cylinder gap. The revolver ships to a licensed dealer you choose, where you finish the background check and pick it up.
