Smith & Wesson Prototype 686-3 Stainless Judy Woolley – Serial BFM1905

This one-of-a-kind Smith & Wesson Model 686-3 Performance Center prototype was built for competitive shooter Judy Woolley and tuned for peak precision. Featuring a heavy 6-inch barrel with compensator, Sightron scope, and Performance Center action, it’s a rare piece of both shooting history and elite craftsmanship.

Description

This isn’t your everyday revolver. The Smith & Wesson Model 686-3 Performance Center prototype—serial number BFM1905—is a one-off piece built for someone who knew how to win. Shipped on March 1, 1991, and custom-crafted for competitive legend Judy Woolley, this .357 Magnum isn’t just rare—it’s part of shooting sports history.

Let’s talk features. The revolver sports a heavy 6-inch barrel topped with a compensator, helping tame recoil and keep shots on target. Scope mounts are integrated with precision in mind, and it’s currently paired with a Sightron pistol scope—an ideal combo for serious accuracy. Whether you’re on the range or showing it off in your display case, it’s got presence.

Now, here’s the real magic: the Performance Center tuning. Everything from the buttery-smooth double-action pull to the crisp single-action break has been dialed in by Smith & Wesson’s top gunsmiths. Balance, trigger control, and recoil management all come together to create a revolver that’s practically made for matches like the Bianchi Cup.

But it’s not just about specs—it’s about story. With Judy Woolley’s name attached to it, this prototype carries more than mechanical excellence; it carries legacy. It’s a glimpse into the era when revolvers ruled the circuit and legends were made one shot at a time.

Whether you’re collecting rare Smith & Wessons or you appreciate the roots of competitive shooting, this revolver brings it all together—history, performance, and a whole lot of personality.
