    Oddly I had to smooth the innards of the 586 a bit. Most S&W's that come from the fresh from the factory need the sideplate removed, rebound slide and possibly the frame gets a light stoning, then a bit of dry lube and they are good to go. I have had a few issues with S&W's but they are all easily taken care of at home. Some say dry fire it a few thousand times but I like my way because it is faster.
    The new 686 action actually is better than the PC gun and I may have nothing to do but shoot it. What a concept.

        I have in the past and a Wolff ribbed full power mainspring really doesn't do much for an already smooth action. Changing rebound slide springs will lightn the pull wt. but invites light strikes. 14# seem to work well. I have all the supplies but want to break it in a bit first.

                  I have one, like it a lot. This makes me want another one for the other side.
                  Sort of a spare magazine already in the gun?

                    The one I ordered two years ago came with 2 magazines, and the catalog shows they still do.

                    Dayum - the money keeps flowing out like water. Recently ordered the Shield 9mm ($320) for the DIL's birthday, ordered season home game tickets for Texas Longhorn football ($2,400 for 4 seats - 7 games), and just finished buying a football parking pass ($215).
                    And here I can barely see to shoot anything beyond 15 yards and the Longhorns have had 3 losing seasons in a row.

                    Maybe I should take up knitting or something.

                      You buy season tickets and you still have to buy parking? Dude, that ain't right.

                      Keep this under your hat but I know how to knit and crochet.

                      Don't let that get out, unmanly and all.

                      Best not to call it knitting, call it textiles.

                            Ordered it Monday at noon from GrabaGun, it was delivered to my FFL in Austin late Tuesday afternoon, and they called this morning to notify me it was ready for pick up. Nice American made 1911 for $399 (after $100 cash rebate). Fit & finish are excellent for a low end 1911. hope it shoots good.

                                It's got the short trigger, now way I would ever own one, even if you gave it to me. (Said no one ever).
