To retire my Python to the ‘inactive’ list, i wanted a replacement as close to as good as the Python as I could get. I handled a lot of pistols, including the Ruger, but bought the 686+. It felt great in the hand, with the Hogue grip. I preferred it over the Ruger. The 686 shot great, but wasn’t as smooth in DA as the Python and the SA trigger pull wasn’t as good. So, off to a local gunsmith for a tuneup, and now i have a terrific shooting pistol. The SA trigger pull is perfect and the DA pull might now be better than the Python’s. I really thought i’d miss the Python, but I don’t. I do prefer the target type hammer on the Python, and the Python is shinier. Man, i can shoot that 686 though.
