Dumb question, S&W K-Frame, square or round butt?
How obvious is it? I think its sqaure, when I take the grip off it has sharp (square) corners. I just dont want to buy something and find out its wrong.

I don't have an answer to your actual question as I don't have a S&W K frame readily available to inspect, however, I just wanted to comment on your title "dumb question". I wanted to say that there are no dumb questions only dumb answers.[:D][:p][8]
P.S. I believe the "K" frames came in both square and round butts but yours sounds like a square to me.0 -
The square butt has a prominent corner both front and back of the grip, a round butt has a nice smooth radius on the back, not a corner, and is designed not to get snagged on clothing.

So I go by the grip and not the frame. heres the pick.

No ... you don't go by the grip because there are some grips out there that do in fact make a round butt appear square.
With the grips off look at the frame. If the rear curves down and around toward a sharp corner at the front ... you've got a round butt frame.
If your still uncertain email me and I'll send you a pix.0 -
Eagle Grips has a photo on their site showing round vs. square butt. Maybe it will help? http://www.eaglegrips.com/images/b5.JPG 0 -
