Martowski, either another gun, or go the Weigand Combat route. I would be cautious about the $19.99 Smith barrels. Some of the Smith barrels that were manufactured in the past did not shoot lead worth a crap. I personally asked Mr. Weigand about this, and he said that the grooves of the barrels were not deep enough, and that Smith had changed their manufacturing process. I was the opposite from you, and wanted a 6 inch barrel, so I opted for the interchangeable barrel system from Weigand. The 6 inch barrel is the only one I have right now, but I do plan on buying a 4 incher. My 686 shoots like a dream with wadcutters from Georgia Arms. The first time out with it my son and I got bored with knocking out the center of the 25 yard pistol target. I was doing most of my shooting single action because I am not as good a shot in double action. The only thing that I would do over would be to have the whole frame bead blasted by Weigand for an extra $75.00. It looks good the way it is, but I think it would look better with the bead blast frame. I am waiting on a set of Blumagnum grips for it that should be here any week now. Once I get those installled, I am going to take some pictures, and post them here on the forum. SS
