686 picture thread

Nice -3 mate, it is a close cousin to mine. What serial number prefix does it have (just out of interest). My two at BDT (the 4) and BPH (the 6).

BJC is the prefix. I think it's from '93-'94 maybe.

 

[Andy the Aussie]

My BPH is suppose to date from 93, the BDT is 89 I believe.

Classic Hunter, circa 1988, Product Code 104249

The Hogue grip shown is actually not the original, which was soft rubber. The one here is an earlier hard nylon type. Also, for whatever reason this gun came with a plain rear sight rather than the white outline it supposedly should've had.

 

[AveragEd]

To my knowledge, the 104249s had the exact sight package your gun has. I have two of them and they're twins to yours. Also, checkered Goncalo Alves target stocks were original equipment on them - both my guns' box labels list them.

Very interesting. I bought mine new, and it definitely came with the soft Hogue Monogrip, and SCSW describes this variation as coming with that as well, notwithstanding that my box also has the code "TS" for grip. I saw a second one of these NIB a couple years ago (which I let pass by like an idiot) and it had the soft Hogue Monogrip, too. However, I was actually considering fitting up some nice Goncalo Alves target stocks to this gun, and you may have just pushed me over the edge on that.
