Very nice pistol, Congrats!

That is one of the slickest looking 686s. I'm sure it will be a sweet shooter.

Hogue Monogrips are pretty decent and ubiquitous. Shouldn't be tough to find some.

BTW, congrats on the new revolver, you're going to love it.

Hogue rubber can be found cheap on Amazon.ca

A great solution, I use one on another pistol and works very well gives a very good feel..

Congrats! I recently picked up a 686P non fluted in a 5". Just a beautiful looking revolver to my eye. Tho Ive never been a fan Houge grip, however on this gun they are sensational in the hand. Enjoy!

the 686P is a round butt... right ?

 

[Corry]

Sweet, I need to get a revolver for my collection

You can order grips straight off the hogue website, ive done it several times.

Yes that one is a round butt. You can order direct from Hogue but they charge 30 usd for shipping so if you can source from Canada it will be a lot cheaper.

 

[GunGuy34]

Round butt and K/L frame if you order from Hogue.

Thanks for the info guys!

FYI, I shot about 2 boxes of .38 yesterday (dealer been out of .357 for a while now).
Recoil was very light, seemed to be shooting high, I will give her a good cleaning and play with sights a bit this week.
Trigger is awesome... in short, I heart her!

I notice a difference between POI with .38s compared to .357s. I solve that by only shooting .357s. Good for the giggles too.
