I've had a 4-inch 686+ for a number of years; it's probably the only gun in my collection I'd never sell. Works perfectly, accurate, heavy enough to absorb recoil from magnum rounds.
It's my favorite gun at the range. Too heavy for me to carry and without night sights, it's not a nightstand favorite. But it's a great gun, well worth the cost of admission.
