Smith & Wesson 686, 6-inch Revolver

Wow ! This S&W 686 pellet gun is just like my Vigilante, except that has no optic rails , rated less velocity and cost just six times as much as the Vigilante !

return it and get a Vigilante

use common sense, if it's not a "realistic" looking replica, and this one is not with the clip out in front of the cylinder, then don't spend crazy money for it.

Have now had this piece for a few weeks now and have put about a thousand pellets through it. It is certainly a fun piece to shoot. I like everything about it. In the past I've only shot single shot pellet guns. This piece adds a totally new dimension to my shooting. As everyone else says, the heftiness of the piece just adds a realistic touch.

I don't know if I'm the exception, but my revolver came with the sights lowered as low as possible. I also had to move the sights to the right quite a lot. After making these adjustments I found that the revolver still shot about six inches high at fifteen yards. I called the factory and they gave me permission to send it in for inspection. I soon got the revolver back, with their declaration that they had adjusted the barrel, and corrected the problem. I soon found that the gun was shooting exactly as it had, quite a bit high. It would seem that this is not my fault, since I have about sixteen pellet handguns and have not experienced this problem with any other. An exaggerated six o:clock hold is necessary to center the shots.

I like to shoot all revolvers double action. I was disappointed to experience a terrible double action pull with this revolver. I soon resolved myself that single action shooting was my only option with this piece. Yesterday while shooting it, for some reason I tried the double action mode again, and was quite pleasantly surprised to learn that the rough double action pull had somehow corrected itself, possibly by smoothing off burrs in machining. I am now quite delighted in the nice double action trigger. I have been in law enforcement for forty six years now and a Viet Nam combat veteran. I have a long past in firearms experience. For those of you like me who got their early training with double action revolver shooting, don't be discouraged with this revolver's bad double action pull. It gets a lot better with breaking in.

Top of the line build quality. Perfect weight and balance. Trigger pull is very nice, and double action pull is super smooth. Extremely accurate.

Match the color of the cylinder to the rest of the gun. And offer wooden grips as an option. Otherwise it is perfect.

Excellent, top notch replica, great for practicing target shooting.

I wrote one product review, which I now would like to update and have the other removed. For some reason this revolver, or I did not jive at first. I was having a terrible time getting it to group. I called Pyramyd Air, I called Umarex, and eventually was set on returning the product. But for some strange reason, probably me all along, the gun started grouping quite well. There is no question that the gun is very high quality an extreme pleasure to own and shoot. I should take a lesson from this and remember to take a little time to reevaluate products before jumping to a half baked conclusion. It's a great addition to the fourteen or so pellet handguns I own.

How about buy one and get the next one free.

This trigger may lighten a little with time. For now it's a little heavier than my other guns, and just may have been the reason I was having such a difficult time at first. Once the trigger is properly learned, shooting gets much better.

This piece is definitely well made, and a good addition to my pellet gun collection. It truly is a blast to take out to my fifteen yard range and blast away. The high quality assures me that I will have years of fun shooting from this gun.

Can't think of a thing.

I own about sixteen single shot guns form Crossman, Benjamin and Daisy/ The Crossman's have been improved with steel breaches. I get superb accuracy out of all of these guns with practically any cheap or expensive pellet. This being my first repeating pellet gun, I was extremely disappointed to find that the accuracy of repeating air guns simply do not compare with the bolt action, single shot type. I am used to superb accuracy out to twenty five yards. This gun falls far short of that. I am sure the blame can rest on the fact that repeating air guns do not possess the inherent accuracy of single shots.

I also have the live-fire 656 and if it wasnt for the black little cylinder there is no way of telling the difference. The built quality is amazing, best one of all. Accuracy is second to none. All in all its an amazing hand-gun.

People that are prepared to spend this much on a co2 gun would also pay the extras for a proper swing-out magazin ( same as Dan Wesson) or at least make the cylinder in the same color. proper rubber grips or Houge grips.

the little seals wear out with time put a small oil slick when loading the little cannister.
Treat this gun with the same respect as the real one. It deserves it.

Feels like the real deal,nice trigger,accurate.

Nothing.

If you like revolvers this is a fun gun to shoot.

This gun is amazing! The weight and balance are perfect. Build quality and detail are top nothc. It's also very accurate. Buy this one, you won't be sorry.

The only thing would be to finish the magazines to match the finish of the rest of the gun!

Get it!

The revolver is well balanced and easy to sight in. Both the single and double action work well. It is easy to load and has a nice co2 latch. This is a good pistol for target practice because of the weight and feel.

Nothing

The pistol has a nice trigger but it takes practice to use it properly. The revolver needs to be loaded with the more espensive pellets to get good accuracy.

It's heft and it's just a plain fun gun to shoot. I shoot international and got this just for fun and I have never had so much fun just blasting pellets. It would be better if they valved it not to use so much CO2 but I don't care. Don't waste your money on the cheaper air revolver, this one is awsum!

Perhaps make a wood grip option. Make it easier to find the other barrel lengths, I have the 6".

JUST BUY IT FOR FUN AND JUST BLAST AWAY!!!!
