Key Features
Robust Construction
This Model 686 Plus variant features a full stainless steel construction across its barrel, cylinder, and L-Frame. The stainless steel provides inherent corrosion resistance and contributes to the firearm’s structural integrity and long-term reliability in diverse operating environments. The satin stainless finish mitigates glare while providing a durable, low-maintenance surface.
Enhanced Capacity
The “Plus” designation signifies a 7-shot cylinder capacity, providing an additional round over standard 6-shot configurations. This capacity enhancement offers an advantage in scenarios requiring extended engagement capability.
Integrated Sighting System
The revolver is equipped with a high-visibility Red Ramp front sight, designed for rapid target acquisition. The rear sight is a precision-adjustable White Outline system, allowing for windage and elevation adjustments to optimize point of impact with various ammunition types and shooting distances.
Internal Lock Safety
An integrated internal lock safety mechanism is present, offering an additional layer of security when the firearm is not in active use. The design incorporates durable synthetic grips, providing a secure and consistent purchase under varying conditions.
