S&W 986

[eddiehelm]

Picked up a 986 5” “Pro series” today. For a PC gun that is far from cheap the trigger leaves a lot to be desired. Fun to shoot though. I just cleaned the plate racks with it today but will get it on paper to see how it groups soon. Anyone else have any experiences on these?

Jerry loved it! Congrats on the pick-up!

PC guns and pro series guns are just apperance packages. They have no additional action work or tuning. They do usually have a ribbed Wollf mainspring a slightly reduced weight rebound spring.
Some PC revolvers have a different front cylinder lock up.

Nice revolver
Enjoy it.

I have light primer strikes on one out of 7 in the moon clip. My last outing I tightened the strain screw and all 7 fired, trigger pull got heavier. It is not my favorite.

BossHoss can help you with that. He will be getting a stack of revolver boxes for trigger work from me next week.

The strain screw is designed to be bottomed out it is not a adjustment screw or a free trigger job
They will sometimes work loose if not properly tightened.
Please don't use locktite on any of the screws.
