Which style butt frame is most predominant on the Model 34 with the 4 inch barrel, the round butt or square butt? Does one bring a higher premium over the other?
Round butt Model 34s by at least 3 to 1. Even more prevalent on the 2”.
I would pay a little premium for the sq butt because I prefer it, especially if I find a model 1953 New I Frame/Model 34 with sq butt. J frame Model 34-1 sq butts are a little more common.
