Another thought...you can't compare the H&R to same-vintage Smiths. I guess you'd put it up against the model 17. This, even though the 686 or 949 is double-action. The Smith is just a much better and more refined weapon. Even though the Single Six is single action, I feel like it's a better comparison. Another good comparison is the Heritage Arms Roughrider or whatever whoever now makes it is calling it. IMO the Single Six is the best of the three with the H&R's in the middle and the Roughrider last-mainly because it lives up to its name.
