    Moon clips are such a pain. That fact and hard to find, expensive ammo will soon end its production again. These comments do not negate its usefulness to the person wanting one, but I think a .41 Mag would be a better choice for a bear protection revolver if that is a reason for purchase.

    A 7 round 686 has an extra round and more power.

    Whatever floats yer boar, I guess.

    I think one of the strong points of a revolver is that you don't need anything more than the gun and cartridges to use one. You don't need anything to hold or feed cartridges. If you're going to have a gun where you need something to hold or feed cartridges, you might as well get one of those self-littering bottom-feeding things.
    If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.

    I think I'll buy my friend Stephanie one for 30th birthday. She deserves a treat.

    I keep waiting for some company to revive the 9mm Federal. At least I think that cartridge would fire in the 9mm LCR and SP101s. I'm not sure why'd I'd choose a 10mm revolver over a .357 or .41 though.

    My former S&W 1917 would chamber and shoot .45acp without clips- I just needed to poke them out with a stick.
    A more convenient process than dealing with the stupid moon clips.
