Critic Consensus

The 986 is just one of Smith & Wessons new revolvers for the year. It has a seven-round cylinder cut for moon clips, a five-inch barrel, and weighs just under 35 ounces. Its double-action trigger is crisp and light, and reminds me of my no-dash 586. It has a stainless steel frame and a titanium cylinder. Getting tight groups with the 986 was as simple as pointing the handgun down... Read critic reviews...

Smith & Wesson M986 Description

The Model 986 is an L-Frame gun, which is much beefier than the J-Frame I longed for 20 years ago. However, the larger frame gives the gun several benefits a smaller gun doesnt have. First, the Model 986 is large enough to handle a seven-round cylinder. This gives it a greater capacity than some of the 9mm pistols being designed for concealed carry today. The Performance Center went with an unfluted cylinder made of titanium. This gives it good strength without adding much weight to the package. The cylinder is gray, which contrasts nicely with the matte stainless finish of the frame and barrel. The colors give the gun an understated multi-tone look. Because the gun is designed for a rimless cartridge, it ships with moon clips to hold the ammunition.
