Fitted with a rare 7-inch barrel option, micro-adjustable target sights, and custom finger-groove laminate wood grips, this stainless steel revolver is a premier target shooting and hunting handgun.

Chambered in .357 Magnum / .38 Special, it features a 7-inch full-underlug stainless steel barrel, 7-shot cylinder, red ramp front sight, white-outline adjustable rear sight, and black-stained laminate wood grips w/ ".357" inlays. The revolver comes complete w/ its original factory serial-matching blue plastic hard case, factory spent test casing, owner's manual, sealed cable lock, and promotional paper items. Displaying pristine satin stainless surfaces, a mirror-bright bore with crisp rifling, tight cylinder lockup, and smooth DA/SA mechanics, this complete boxed 7" S&W 686-6 Plus is a standout addition for revolver collectors.
