The revolver came to me without a box, but with a set of Craig Spegel large boot grips, signed and dated 2009. I added the old style thumbpiece. Overall, it is slightly holster-worn but looks to be in good shape. The trigger is excellent.
Great find, and I like what you did with the thumb piece. I have a new, meaning month old 586 L-comp and am impressed with it. I suspect your trigger is better though.
