I am a newbie to revolvers, but will be shopping for a used 686 in the near future. After reading about the S&W internal lock, I think I would prefer to avoid that if possible. I have looked at a few at GB, but have not seen anything in the pictures that appears to be a keyhole.

My question is about the location of the lock, and if it would be easily observed in a good side-view picture of the gun?

Thanks,

SK
