″++SMITH &WESSON 581 .357 MAGNUM″

The S&W 581 is a larger L-frame revolver, first produced in the 1980s. The 581 is actually a variant of the 586, with the 581 having fixed sights and a 6-round cylinder. The 581 is chambered for .357 magnum, and can also shoot the lighter .38 special round. The flexibility is nice, as .38s are more enjoyable to shoot in longer sessions at the range. When you need the extra stopping power be it for self defense or hunting you can go with the .357 magnum. The weight and balance of the gun is excellent, and accuracy for a revolver with fixed sights is very respectable. With the 4" barrel, it's also a good candidate for concealed carry. These guns are becoming more desirable, and you'll be lucky to find one these days in such good condition. Includes a soft case.
