Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Model 986 is an L-Frame gun, which is much beefier than the J-Frame. However, the larger frame gives the gun several benefits a smaller gun doesn’t have. First, the Model 986 is large enough to handle a seven-round cylinder. This gives it a greater capacity than some of the 9mm pistols being designed for concealed carry today.
The Performance Center went with an unfluted cylinder made of titanium. This gives it good strength without adding much weight to the package. The cylinder is gray, which contrasts nicely with the matte stainless finish of the frame and barrel. The colors give the gun an understated multi-tone look.
The Model 986 has a custom 2.5-inch barrel that’s much more than a typical production piece. First, it has a recessed precision crown. As many shooters know, the crown can have a significant effect on the accuracy of a gun. Recessing the barrel crown helps prevent accuracy-reducing damage to it.
The trigger pull is smooth, with a somewhat- heavier-than-expected double-action weight of 11.3 pounds—an average of 10 pulls. The 5-inch-barreled Model 986 released by the Performance Center a few years ago had a double-action trigger pull closer to 10 pounds. However, the single-action pull is light and crisp, measuring 4 pounds.
