Smith & Wesson Corp. has added two new Performance Center revolvers, the Model 686 and Model 686 Plus, featuring premium enhancements for an out-of-the-box, competition-ready package. Some of the features include a speed release thumbpiece, interchangeable sights, and a Performance Center tuned action. The revolvers are also visually unique with an unfluted cylinder, vented ribbed barrel, and a chromed custom teardrop hammer.
