Does it come with the box? What dash model is it? Thanks, Joel

Engineering changes in the model. Everytime a design change is made, the dash number changes.
I found this on the S&W forum:
686 History
686 ''dash nothing'' - 1980
686-1, 1986 - radius stud package and floating hand
686-M - 1987 recall stamping on earlier versions
686-2, 1987, hammer nose change, bushing and ***'d parts
686-3, 1988, new yoke retention system
1990 - 2 1/2" barrel introduced.
686-4 ........ 1994 thru 1998 - many changes including move to 7 shot, sight changes etc.
686-5 had the move to MIM parts and frame mounted firing pin
-6 is when S&W started putting the lock on the 686; -5 and earlier are all pre-lock, and -4 and earlier are all pre-MIM hammer/trigger (-4s had a MIM thumbpiece).
The -4 list of changes says "many changes including move to 7 shot, sight changes etc."
