Frequently Asked Questions
Smith & Wesson Model 686 Plus for sale
What makes the S&W 686 Plus special?
The 686 Plus is a seven-shot .357 Magnum revolver, offering one extra round over standard six-shot revolvers. Its stainless steel L-frame balances durability with manageable recoil, making it suitable for range use, self-defense, and hunting. It accepts moon clips for faster reloads.
What's the difference between a 686 and a 686 plus?
Standard 686 revolvers hold six rounds, while the 686 Plus chambers seven. Both fire .357 Magnum and share the same stainless L-frame design. Grip materials and barrel lengths vary by specific variant.
What hits harder, 357 or 45?
.357 Magnum generates roughly 500 ft-lbs of muzzle energy versus .45 ACP's typical 350 ft-lbs, so .357 hits harder by that measure. However, .45 delivers a slower, heavier bullet with a larger diameter. Raw energy favors .357; terminal wound channel favors .45.
