POTD: Naked S&W 686 .357 Magnum
Published: February 11th, 2015
Darren sent us this photo of his Smith & Wesson Model 686, stripped down for polishing. He writes …
This is my 686. It usually wears some old school wood Pachmayr grips, but is torn down for polishing in this pic.
A steel beauty like the Model 686 is timeless and will never go out of fashion.
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

It's a beautiful piece of firearms engineering.
Heritage is only a part of it.
Great, now I will feel guilty handling my guns, trying to explain that even though I looked at gun porn doesn't mean they fail to fulfill my needs.
