I have an old (pre-mim) blue 586. I bought a pair of the new wood grips because I like them and I also wanted to save the originals which are in perfect condition. But while the new grips fit the old gun just fine, they do take a shorter grip screw. That is, if I use the older screw, the end sticks out on the palm side and I feel it.
Jack First gun parts can't seem to figure out the part number for the new screw, and smith and wesson won't get back to me and I can't get them on the phone for it. Anyone know that part number? Or anyone who might have that screw? Many thanks.
*Edit: And yes, I've spent time on ebay without results.
