Re: Handgun advice
You should be able to get a 686 for less than $500. Mine has a 4" or 41/2" barrel and it (I can't but it can) shoots accurate out to about 100 yards with 125 grain bullets. I am sure by now that you have actually seen the gun. It is all stainless with a full underlug barrel. The model 65 is basically the same gun without the underlug. Either gun would be a good choice. If you want to back off of the money some more, around $350, I would recommend a Taurus. They are pretty good guns that are clones of popular models.
