I wanted to get a 1911 at first, but after a while I decided to go with a S&W 357 magnum. I plan on buying a laser sight for it, and a holster so I can carry it concealed, after I get my LTCF and paychecks lol. Here's a few pictures of it.

You have a very nice 686 SSR! Was it NIB or used?

After today, it's all historical.
Very nice. That's a good quality revolver there. It will serve you well.

nice gun
But what's with the smooth sided barrels these days?
I just got back from test firing it today. I put .38 special rounds through it, because I wanted to save some money. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
Congratulations, looks like a great revolver.

I tried to push the envelope, but found that it was stationery.

That will last you a lifetime. You can't go wrong with a Smith. Congrats!
Oh, by the way, get a couple of speed loaders and you're all set.
You're going to carry that bad boy?!?! Awesome!

Nice gun, but would not be my choice for concealed carry. I don't even feel comfortable with my 2.5" K19
I went to Galco, and found a great holster for it but they're currently out of stock. Does anybody on here know of some good websites that can offer quality holsters for me?
Lasers on defensive handguns are for queers. If you ever do find yourself in a gunfight, there is a strong likelihood that it will go down so fast and at such a short range that you won't even see the laser. Spend the money on ammo.
That is one nice looking Smith, I like those grips. I just have a Model 19.
I sold all my guns and ammo, now I live the quiet retired life.
I don't know, I bought it off a crippled guy at a gun show. That's just a stock picture, mine has no cylinder ring. I think a limited number were available to the public after the Pennsylvania Troopers had first crack at them. The pistol is from 1980, old S&W craftsmanship. I'm seriously considering selling it, too nice to shoot.

I do not agree. I've had one encounter where I was looking over my sights at a deranged perp. He came toward me and I flipped on my laser to make sure I hit him and the laser saved his life......he stopped instantly.
To me lasers are another tool. Not a cure all for anything but useful at times.
