I just bought a 4" Model 19 - 5 at my LGS. (1988 mfg. I think) I had only had a guick glance at it in a display case but I saw the bluing was awesome, so I called and said I'd take it since I've been wanting to replace a 19 I let go years ago.
Well I went in a while ago to see what I actually bought and I was right it looks factory fresh with the barest of turn lines. However, it's wearing the wrong grips! They fit fine along the backstrap but protrude past the front strap by quite a bit.
When I get it here I'll post pics. To top things off my BCG was delayed for some bureaucrats enjoyment so that means another trip to town in a couple of days to pick it up.
Also, could anyone help me out by telling me what the correct grips would be?
