How About an L-Frame Pic Thread?

Hi Wisent,

Thanks for the compliments!!! I'd love to see you post some photos of you mirror polished guns as I'm sure they look great!!!! :)
 
I notice some beautiful grips. I have a mint condition model 28 and would like to fit some Rosewood grips on it with the S&W medallion. I've been looking around and would like some recomendation.
 
Just one L-frame. I like it though!

Hi .357 Magnum,

I am so sorry but I do not have a webcam to make photos - as soon as I have got one, I'll do my very best.
My 696 with dark rosewood combats is the best looking wheelgun I ever had.

But I have to admit - for technical reasons I wpuld very much prefer the carbon steel guns, like the "Classic Line" from S&W.
If I could have a 586 three incher in mint condition here in Germany, ... I but dream....

Best regards

Wisent
 
Hi Wisent,

Lucky you as I wish I owned a 696!!! I don't know why they aren't making them any longer as it is a gorgeous gun. Post some photos someday when you can.

Take care!!
 
Just came across this thread about 4 pages back. Love those L-Frames. I carried this 4 inch 686-1 for my last 12 years as a LEO. Have these pics blown up to 8" x 11" 'ers & hanging on my wall here in the Den. All are Non-ILs. Theres gota be more out there.
Lets see 'em guys.

Three L Frame Beauties

Here are my three L frames. The first, as 686 in factory black, is unmodified except for the Spegel Extended Boot grips and PC Master Action job. The other two are PC 586 L-Comps, one in 3" (I have two identical I use for carry) and one in 4" which I shoot in IDPA competition. All of them wear Spegel Extended Boot grips.
