686-4 round butt with 6 inch barrel question.

[Stoneold]

Yesterday I picked up a used round butt 6 inch model 686-4 in very good condition. I read somewhere online today (don't ask me where now) that a round butt 686-4 might be fairly rare. It is, of course, a fantastic shooter. Does anyone know if this really is a rare one? Thanks for any help.

I’m pretty sure all -4 are round butt

My -4 is round butt. Four inch. Definitely one of the best guns I own.

If I'm understanding the SCSW correctly, the round butts began with the 686-4s. If so, the -4 with round butt is likely not fairly rare. I've only owned one 686-4, and it was round butt...

Thanks for all of the replies and the confirmation. Not sure why it took me so long to pick up an L frame, but very glad that I finally did.
