[QUOTE="mtngunr, post: 4331533, member: 46104"] Also, while talking 681, this one of mine from earlier 1983 seems an obvious LEO gun from so much holster finish wear to complete circumference of cylinder (and rest of gun, along with equally obvious retention strap wear).... It is unmarked (first thing checked at shop to include Pachmayr Gripper removal), and this in eastern Oklahoma.... So, any of you folk familiar with any eastern PDs where 681 use was common? I figure most eastern PDs of the 1980s had (or even have) guys buying own weapons, but, even that is a guess, me only in this state for last 7yrs, and wondering at possible origins, and figuring most recreational shooters/hunters would have opted for the highbrow 686 with adjusto sights. Personal thought is that a local cop rightly figured if it were good enough for the Highway Patrol, it was good enough for him. [/QUOTE]
