I really cant decide between these two. I already have a trr8 and plan on buying a 4" 627 and 625 4" pc. Here are the choices.

 

686 plus pc 5" slab side.

 

686 plus talo 5" unfluted cylinder.

Talo 5", I really like that gun

Talo 5", love the unfluted look.

PC. Cylinder flutes, square butt conversion grips, and slender barrel all make for better handling qualities.

Talo 5", love the unfluted look.

this..   would be my choice as well...

Neither.

 

Personally, I'd skip over the 7 shot variety and go with an N-Frame 627 ( 8 shot )

I have the PC and love it

I plan on getting a 627 at some point.

Talo. Just looks sharp

I have a 3" Talo.  I love that gun.  I want the 5" and 7"

Both are fine choices. 

I like the full lug look so I go with 2.

Whichever YOU like better.

 

BTW: The slabsided 686+ is not a PC gun - it is part of the Pro series.

I am leaning towards the talo. I love the unfluted cylinder

I can't decided either

On looks, the Talo.

 

Though Commonsense's comment:

Cylinder flutes, square butt conversion grips, and slender barrel all make for better handling qualities.

 

sounds about right.

The Talo...

Since it's my understanding that your collection is far from meager, get both! But I like the unfluted cylinder and full lug on the Talo.

Congrats on whichever you choose.

If you like the unfluted cylinder look, buy a S&W 610, all those I have seen are unfluted. I believe only 5000 were made. I use mine all the time.

a 610 is on my list but need to find one for a good price

I really like the Talo as well.

Another vote for the Talo.

a 610 is on my list but need to find one for a good price

There were a couple on Gunbroker recently. I doubt you'll find one for less than $1500, but then again, my last two 1911's cost that much each.
