How about factory aftermarket?

Hogue cocobolo checkered bantam

I don't know what these are called. They were on the gun when I got it and I have never bothered to try and find out. They are nice and beefy for the big-handed shooter.....a real nice handful.

Hogue cocobolo checkered bantam

Hey Mattbiel, does Hogue still make two piece grips. I am not a fan of the monogrips. The rubber ones I had on my 686 were "a little loose". Those are some nice looking grips there sir. I just picked up a pair of Ahrends Retro Combat grips a couple of weeks ago, the fit is absolutely perfect, but I would prefer too have the availability of checkering as it provides a more positive grip for me. If anyone knows where to get those two piece Hogue's or any other quality two piece grips I would appreciate any suggestions.

Here is my 686P.

I've gone back to using the original checkered targets on most of my S&W revolvers but I really like this set of S&W accessory stocks in laminated rosewood, shown here on a 6" Model 66-2.

I've also used them on a Model 686; they are very comfortable, fit my hand well and look very nice at the same time. As indicated by how far they extend past the gun's grip frame, they are slightly longer than the factory stocks, which is good for my somewhat wider hand, but not so much longer that they look out of place.

My new 686+ with Ahrends tactical round butt in cocobolo.

Apologies for the poor photography.

Please don't think Ahrends are low quality for the price. The fit and finish are right there with the best. You would have to send your gun in for a more precise level of fit.

+1...strongly agree
