Default L-K Frame Question

I just aquired a"Bubba'd" 686-4 with a "hiccup" trigger job.
I happen to have a trigger and hammer from a K-38 and wondered if it will fit/function in the 686.
Anybody know?

Thanks
Al

Here's a stupid question -- What's "Budda'd" mean?

Bubba thought he could do a trigger job, now the gun needs to be rebuilt. "Bubba'ed"

Bubba used to be a Mountainwilliam, but now he's called an Appalachian American that does trigger jobs. Gotta be PC you know.

Correct; Bubba is the gremlin who makes 1 ounce triggers, buggered screws, and similar "gotchas".

Budda is the last guy on Earth that you want working on your gun as he's sort of like a hammer mechanic on steriods.

Thank you gentlemen. That's too funny. I love the term "hammer mechanic" too.
