bigdawgbeav Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 At a local shop came across a used 986 9mm for $699... I don't know if it's the pro or PC version, but if not, is that price a good one? Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revoman Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Not a bad price but it is a seven shot not any good in USPSA or ICORE. Would be good in steel challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is good since I only shoot Steel ChallengeSent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alecmc Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 You know what's better than 7 shots for steel challenge? ... ... ...8 shots for steel challenge I'd recommend skipping over the 7 shot variants entirely and pickup an 8 shooter. A 627/929 can be found between the 700-900 mark easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWP Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I think someone should commission a 986 carbon barrel build for steel, because I’ve always wanted to try one. And I can’t talk myself into it with all these 929s... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe4d Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Ive got a 686 pro 7 shot, Decent for pins, 8 would be better. I would say that price is way to high. Due to basically it being a niche gun they will probably never move. At least with mine it makes a good ranch , deer , pig gun. 9mm revolver is kinda a gamer only gun, but being 7 shots it isnt really good at any games. Offer them 5 and leave your number, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMM50 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 The 7 shots (9MM and 357) are build on a smaller frame than the 8 shots. That might be a reason to buy. USPSA only put 6 downrange and then reload. Puts you in a different category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMM50 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I've seen good 6 shooter place high with the 8 shooters. And ICORE has a category I believe. And Steel Challenge all you need is 5. But I understand what you're saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
