S&W 586 grip recommendations

[Ghostdevilguy]

This is one of my personal favorites in my collection, and is probably going to become my carry/hiking/general use gun. It's a early 586, AEA prefix, 4" barrel, M stamp, has some honest wear, but is a solid shooter. With a butter smooth trigger in both double and singe action, the SA trigger pull is solid with no hammer pushoff, with maybe a 2lb pull and zero take up. The double action is just as smooth, it's heaver, but like butter. My only issue, it has a set of Altamont coke bottle grips. And as much as I have tried to like them, they just don't fit my hands, it feels too small in places., and puts a weird pressure on my pinkie. I've been looking at a set of g10 VZ grips, this revolver will be shot a lot. And I have g10 grips on my High power. I'm thinking maybe some old school target or combat grips. Thoughts? Opinions? Rude remarks? Photos of your 586/686 you want to show off?

Here's mine, I rescued her from a gun store last September.

I found that a standard target stock, from S&W, with a lot of the wood removed was a good option for me.

The targets were too wide and too long at the bottom so I removed lumber until they were comfortable.

If the Altamont grips aren't comfortable, G10 VZ grips are a great option since you already like them on your Hi-Power. Alternatively, classic wood or rubber grips could offer better ergonomics and recoil absorption for long shooting sessions.

G10s are great grips, but look at Hogue rubber monogrips. Since this is gonna be a hiking/defense gun either rubber or G10 would be good choices. The G10s will look better but the rubber ones will feel great.
