New to Me 681 (581 added)

[CobiaS&W]

Been looking for this 681 for awhile. This is a Non "M" model. The holster will work with the 681, 581, 686-3 and 586-3 - 4 inch guns that I now own.

My 681 is my only L frame. Great shooting gun. Yours looks awesome. Love the combat grips.

Every time I see a photo of a 681, it causes me to remember the NYC gun laws where you weren't even allowed to TOUCH a handgun if you didn't have a pistol license... You all know where I'm going with this!

Meanwhile, I was recently at the range with my 686SSR shooting fast double taps with magnum ammo, so it's not as though I'm completely bereft.

These fixed sight "L" frames are two of the best looking revolvers ever to come out the factory, IMO.

Those are getting harder and harder to find. Great looking stocks also.

I have a Ohio state highway patrol stamped model 681 love it

That is such a nice revolver, and I love those grips!

Lovely (and I really like the holster) even though I'm not normally a fan of the pseudo-Python full lug.

Never tried the combats before, but the square-butt magnas with a T-grip or clone fit my hand perfectly on my K frames, so I haven't felt much need to explore different grips for them.

Mine is a CAI/Australian Federal Police import.

The 681 is a great revolver--one of the best S&W ever made.

Enjoy it!!!!

Indeed they are!! And one of the most practical as well.

i have one just like it it came with the same grips were those grips standard on the 681

 

[Invictus357]

I would dearly love that in Magnas.

Your combats still looks sweet.

The Magna PC grips that came on this gun are put safely away.

With a 2.5 or 3" barrel and no lock!

Very nice! Have you shot it yet? I got one of the Sportman's Warehouse PR ones that was rough as rough could be. Cleaned the rust off and polished up and when I finally got it out to shoot it put 12 rounds in about 1/2" at 15 yard. Might be my best shooting Smith so far.

And some Folks think they're ugly…… But, I agree with you completely!

No matter how beautiful something is, there is always someone who thinks it's ugly.
