The Model 586 no-dash is an L-frame revolver chambered in .357 Magnum with a 4-inch carbon-steel barrel and a fluted six-shot cylinder. This example has a bright nickel finish on the frame, cylinder, and barrel.
Factory sighting equipment includes a ramped front sight with a red insert and an adjustable micrometer-type rear sight. The barrel features a full underlug and a serrated top rib for a clean sight picture.
Action is double-action/single-action with a smooth-face trigger and a serrated wide hammer spur for confident control. The L-frame retains a K-frame-sized grip area for familiar handling.
This revolver bears the factory "M" stamp on the yoke, indicating the Smith & Wesson recall modification was completed on this early no-dash 586. It was marketed in the era as the Distinguished Combat Magnum and was produced in the United States in the early 1980s.
Aftermarket Pachmayr rubber finger-groove grips are installed, providing a secure, hand-filling hold consistent with the L-frame profile.
