We went to visit my daughter yesterday and her boyfriend couldn't wait to show me his Marlin 336. It had a safety, It just looked so out of place and unnecessary.You can thank the Hildabeast for that one.
Here is yet another beautiful wheelgun marred by the detestable Hillary hole.

I would leave it there also. It doesn't hurt anything, and Heaven forbid you ever need to use the gun in self-defense and someone wants to sue or charge you. You can bet the "he's the type of bloodthirsty Rambo cowboy who would go out of his way to disable a safety feature" argument would be used against you.
Last year, I decided for my next gun purchase would be my first revolver. A big gap in my collection, and I have always been drawn to them.
After TONS of research, going through pages and pages of revolver threads, a few gun show trips, hours of youtube videos, and visiting local shops to fondle and get revolver advice....Duffys, 2A Sales, Engage Armament, Tyler Firearms, Freestate, Blue Fins to name a few, were all extremely helpful.
I finally decided on a S&W 686P 3 inch Talo edition. Thanks to all you guys for helping me in my search for my first revolver!!

My first revolver too - and agree, she's a beaut that preternaturally directs rounds where pointed at a target. Ended up gifting this one to my wife before October 2013 (to save her from coursework in getting an HQL - as it's the firearm that we have that she is most comfortable with - she shoots 38 Specials out of it - and these shots go where she wants and have nearly no recoil). While I've gotten a couple of other revolvers since, I still feel a void. Saw the 586 Performance Center model at Engage last week, and that trigger was sweet.
I've got the same TALO model but with the 5" barrel.

Does anyone know when and how many 686's were made specifically in 38 special?
Wikipedia actually has a brief history of the Model 686 ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_&_Wesson_Model_686
Just for the record, the article says 38 Super and indeed it was a 38 Super that looks like the recent slab side barrel and unfluted cylinder Performance Center guns.it would be cool to come across one of the competition 38 special 686 models that is mentioned in the page
I think Fidelity is correct in that the 686 has always been 357 mag with the ability to shoot 38 special.
