I own a Python, Ruger Match Champion and Colt King Cobra but this Smith, in my opinion, is the best. It fits in my big hands perfectly, The trigger is fantastic, which makes me look like I know how to shoot. It looks great and is the right weight and balance. It's not a canceled carry gun for me but it's possible. Shooting 357 mag rounds are easily manageable. All this for the best price around at time time I bought it. 5/26/2025 ** ** ** ** ** ** Andries Walnut Creek, CA I got the 3" Talo model that is a sweet looking revolver in person. It came with a small scratch on the cylinder and one on the frame, nothing too drastic. The trigger and mechanism was very gritty and sticky, and even had it hang up a few times. After cleaning out the internal mechanism and a little oil it seems to run fine now. S&W need to step up their QC, a customer shouldn't have to fix the revolver to work properly. Not sure where the scratches happened, maybe at KYGUNCO maybe my FFL or shipping, but most likely at S&W. It is not bad enough to send back, but also not leaving a great feeling when paying for a proper revolver. This is not a cheap little revolver, and relatively pricey. 3/3/2025 ** ** ** ** ** ** Verified Customer Smith and Wesson really needs to work on their quality control. This gun which is relatively expensive, had machining marks all over it. In addition, the side plate was thinner than the mating surface so wherever there was a joint the plate was lower than that surface which left a sharp ridge. Basically had to refinish the gun. However it came with a wonderful single action trigger and was very accurate. I have other 686s for comparison. This is the second time in the last few years that I’ve had finish issues with the new firearm from Smith and Wesson. The last one I sent back and to their credit they replaced it with a new gun. Kygunco was great as usual! 3/2/2023 ** ** ** ** ** ## Don't Forget Your Ammo ```json
