Comments: This is an excellent replica from Umarex of the S&W 586. It is very well made and has terrific accuracy in the 8" version. Trigger action is very good in both the single and double-action modes. The only differences between the S&W Model 586 and 686 firearms are the material and finish. The 586 is blued steel and the 686 is polished stainless steel. The airguns by Umarex are painted (586) and nickel plated (686). This pistol generates enough energy to be useful for hunting vermin at close distances.
