Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced in 1980 as part of Smith & Wesson’s revolutionary L-frame family, the Model 586 Distinguished Combat Magnum was engineered specifically to handle continuous firing of full-power .357 Magnum ammunition without the weight and bulk of the larger N-frame. Combining the ideal frame strength of the medium-heavy L-frame chassis with a full-length underlug barrel, the Model 586 quickly became one of the most celebrated duty and sporting revolvers in American history. The Model 586-8 revision brought this iconic classic back to modern production, re-introducing the deep, high-gloss royal blue steel finish alongside classic 4-inch full-underlug proportions, red ramp/white-outline target sights, color case-hardened hammer and trigger controls, and traditional checkered hardwood target stocks with gold S&W medallions. Delivering supreme recoil dampening, ideal barrel balance, and classic S&W wheelgun beauty, the 4-inch 586-8 stands as a crown-jewel choice for collectors and magnum shooting purists.
This fine, highly preserved collector example, serial number DHC9379, is an authentic Smith & Wesson Model 586-8 Distinguished Combat Magnum manufactured in Springfield, Massachusetts. Chambered in .357 Magnum, this revolver features a 4-inch full-underlug barrel, 6-shot cylinder, high-gloss factory blue finish, red ramp front sight, adjustable white-outline rear sight, case-hardened controls, and checkered hardwood target stocks with S&W gold medallions. Preserved in clean, highly maintained condition throughout with deep glossy blue finish coverage, sharp rollmarks, solid mechanical lockup, and a mirror-bright bore with razor-sharp rifling. Offering timeless L-frame proportions and legendary .357 Magnum performance, this Model 586-8 represents an exceptional modern classic revolver.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3-day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
