Well it seems that Smith and Wesson has gone to all round butt grip frames on their wheelguns.
I dont understand why. Round Butt enthusiasts could argue a round butt is good on a concealed carry small frame revolver because it does give you slightly better concealment.
I fail to see the advantage of the round butt design for larger guns that will be carried in a OWB holster, or used as range guns.
Smith and Wesson even provides most of its revolvers with a round to square conversion grip out of the box (the Hogues).
I like the square butt better and the first thing I do is look for a conversion grip if I get a round butt gun. The squarebutt just fits my hand better.
So what made them decide to go with the round butt guns?????
