Dream guns: we all have em...for me one of them has been

S&W's .357 Mountain Gun built on the L frame 686+ format...One of the first posts I read on the old Campfire (or Sixgunner) board was a thread on that particular model...When the 686 was first introduced I was hoping for a standard barrel configuration to be released soon after...nadda..then Tim Sundles and JT mentioned the 686+ MG...I was hooked!
I looked on the boards...I looked on gunbroker...I had friends bird dogging barrels for a switch over...I am not paying 400. for a MG barrel! S&W re introduced a Mountain Gun on the L frame...but, it was a 6 shooter! That would not do...When Matt posted this gun a few weeks ago, I was in agony. I had just went on a .357 buying spree: deals all too good to pass up...I let it stay up for 24 hours, give or take...I hoped to bring it to CSA, but we were traveling light this trip. It will get shot this week.
