A: Bradley, this is about as rare as hens teeth Sir. I would check on large gun and accessory sites like (6)un (8)roker, Armslist and Guns America as discontinued and hard to find firearms and accessories show up for sale by private individuals and small shops. Just replace (6) & (8) with G & B.

A: NO, the cylinder must be cut/machine to accept moon clips. 686 Plus cylinder does not come cut from factory. I hope this helps!

A: John, this model is not cut for Moon Clips Sir (S&W details here) : https://www.smith-wesson.com/product/model-686-plus?sku=164300
