Hi all,
A while back I purchased a used 686-4, 6”, square butt, with matching serial # factory box, paperwork, cleaning kit & all. It did have a nice pair of Goncalo Alves grips.
Since then I was doing some checking & read that the 686-4’s came from the factory with Houge grips, not the wood ones. So, I was wondering if any you history members could confirm that.
I’ve found a few pictures of 686-4’s with Hogue grips with the S&W monogram & a few 686-4’s, but they’re all for the round butt conversations to a square butt. We’re there any true square butt models with the S&W monogram, or did the factory simply use a standard pair of Hogue monogrammed square butt grip?
Any help is appreciated
