I never noticed the difference as most of my Smith's didn't have the full lug until recently when I purchased a 686-4. While a beautiful gun, man is it heavy. Obviously I'm not a precise instrument but holding and firing it versus my MG there is a noticeable difference in the distribution of weight and overall weight. It's crazy to think that an N frame 4" barreled revolver can feel about the same or less than that of a 4" 686 L frame. I don't know the exact weight of each but I know how they feel to me!

To me the mountain guns are the true classics. Much better than the full lug guns. Hand guns are supposed to be light easy to carry guns, Why add useless weight. I just don't notice that much less recoil from my full lug guns.
