Thanks for the ideas so far. A lot of my problem seems to be this is a square butt gun. It's a 8 3/8 586.

I am looking for a set of grips to fill the web of my hand, on the upper backstrap. Any suggestions? Pictures are good. Thanks, Craig

Shot a bunch of steel Friday and the palm swell and Talon grip did what I hoped it would. So far quite a success. I have a 10-8 rear sight on the gun and need to change out the front sight. I have the 10-8s on my FS and I love them.

I will try to explain this one more time. My objective is that when I grab the gun, close my eyes, insert the gun into my line of vision, and open my eyes, I want to be looking right down the top of the slide with my sights. I don't want to be adjusting my sights. I want the gun shooting...

At the risk of stirring things up again, I had the same problem with my Shield and the grip and here is what I did. Please read my entire post and look at the pictures. I did not leave the masking tape under the grip. I merely used it as a way to see if my idea would work and it does...

I have a 10-8 on the back and have been thinking about a night sight on the front only.

All I did was create a palm swell on a gripless gun. No more, no less, the proof will be in the shooting. I used the masking tape to see if it corrected my grip and then used the Talon grip material for the palm swell. I put different grips on my 642 when I wanted a covered backstrap so it...

I knew when I posted this that people like Willco know more about me than I do myself. I have shoot lots of steel challenge, IPSC pistol and three gun, combat shotgun, sporting clays, and I know how to shoot. I think it is pretty ridiculous for someone to tell me I bought the wrong gun. If...

Before I bought my shield, I tried my nephew's shield out at 7 yards. I used an IPSC target and loaded my 4.25 FS and the shield, and ripped off sbout three fast shots from one, than the other, then back and forth until empty. It convinced me that I wanted a shield. I did notice that the gun...

3.5 grains of Bullseye pushing the Lee 125 grn round nose flat cast bullet is extremely accurate and mild.

Could a 5" barrel be threaded for a supressor to fit a 4.25 gun?

I hope it is the improvement I'm looking for.

What do you think?

I just watched the great video on installing the semi-drop in barrel. Should be really easy to do if you take your time.

Anyone seen anyone do it? Think S&W will ever do it?
