What's Included
- Smith & Wesson Model 586 No-Dash revolver
This no-dash Model 586 is an L-frame .357 Magnum with a 4-inch, full-underlug heavy barrel and a serrated rib. The six-shot fluted cylinder and carbon-steel, blued construction embody the robust configuration that made the "Distinguished Combat Magnum" a standout among duty-size revolvers.
Sight regulation is supported by a fully adjustable micrometer rear sight paired with a ramped front sight featuring a red/orange insert, offering a clear, high-contrast sight picture. The double-action/single-action system combines a smooth-faced trigger with an exposed, checkered-spur hammer.
This example retains pre-lock configuration with a hammer-nose firing pin. It wears factory-style checkered hardwood target stocks with S&W medallions, providing a secure, traditional grip profile that complements the L-frame’s balance.
Additional identifying details include an ABU serial prefix observed on the yoke cut and an assembly number present on the yoke cut. No "M" overstamp is observed near the model marking in the provided image (pertains to the 1987 L-frame product warning/upgrade). Made in the United States.
