I have read that the Altamont grips are narrower in the hand than original it's true or not ? different feeling ?
@Glashaus your grip on your 686 is amazing, I think I ll order this one.
The delivery is quick if the item is in stock ..nice.
I join the fan of Altamont because the grips are really nice.
Thanks
The Bateleur grips are thinner then target grips, they have a curve to them almost like the coke bottle grips, they also have slight finger grooves. These grips feel great shooting my 586 with both .38 Specials and .357 Magnum rounds, super control.



I totally agree with Mike SC Hunter, the Altamont target grips are too thin and long, they do not give the same feel as original S&W factory grips, the Bateleur and other Altamont grips that I have feel great, most of the others are Service grips, I do have a few sets of the Combat grips, both regular and boot .
