Looking to get a revolver - 686 online retailer?

[Sgt.RazorBurn]

I am thinking about getting a double action revolver. I don't know much about revolvers. I am doing research now.

.357 seems like a good caliber, I am looking for something more powerful then my 9mm.

The GP100 and 686 look like they may fill the void in my gun chest. I just haven't seen the 686 on any online retailers. Anybody know where I should look (besides EE)?

Any other ideas for a DA action revolver would be welcomed. I'm probably looking to spend $1100 at the most.

The 357 is a great choice, in fact a 357 revolver used to be the standard advice to the "what gun should I buy". In fact if you had to have just one handgun, it's the one that could do the most, and do most of it well. I'm partial to the 686 or the heavier Model 28 - they just have a nicer trigger than the Ruger, and better fine accuracy when using 38 HBWC match loads. Full power 357 loads are much more powerful than any 9mm loads.

I'm not sure who has it in stock, but the 686 is a great choice.

Bought mine from EPPS.

From my search EPPS looks like the best bet, though I see none in stock. I'll send them an email. How much was yours bigi?

Al Flaherty's appears to have the 686 in stock
