Hard to beat the 629-5

by FOG, Tuesday, March 19, 2013, 16:03 (4212 days ago) @ rob

If I wanted a 586/686, I wouldn't wait too long.

The six-shot guns seem to be some of the better S&W deals going in terms of price (on average at least), but that probably won't last forever.

As for the NM Rugers, the thing that I didn't like was the timing (cylinder didn't line up with the ejector rod on the 'clicks').

I heard they 'fixed' that on some of the newer NMs, but I've kind of lost track.
