There's probably not a better thread to ask this question.I switched grips on the Model 10 yesterday and snapped this pic. I shoulda grabbed the 642 and threw it in there, too.

I have several K/L frame Hogue Hardwoods and they seem to fit my hand quite similar to the rubber ones. I'm a big fan.There's probably not a better thread to ask this question.
The set shown on the 686 (left) is the third set of grips I've had on it. The original grips are probably the best, the Houge factory rubbery grip, but I like it a bit better when the grip follows the round butt frame. The next set was a smooth wood set, but they were way too big.
The set on the gun in this picture is a set of Altamonts. I like the way they look and the fore/aft dimension on the grip is about right, but they swell too much to fit how I want. What I'm really looking for is a set closer to the Houge wood grips on the 60 (right), which are quite a bit thinner in cross section.
Does any one know what the Houge wood grips for the L-Frame are like in comparison?
That looks great. I see it leaves the backstrap exposed. Those look like they should be the ticket. Thanks.I have several K/L frame Hogue Hardwoods and they seem to fit my hand quite similar to the rubber ones. I'm a big fan.
Here's one on a model 66 K-frame, which is the same as is used on the L-frame.

Mine has correctly-numbered diamond Magnas, but if I find the right deal on a set of diamond targets they'll likely get purchased.I bought correct vintage diamond checkered stocks and they showed up this morning. It probably had Magnas on it when it was new but these were available as a factory option. That's close enough for me.
