    Good grief.

    I have a new make 686+ that's been great.

    I paid $40 for the machined & polished button, removed the lock and plugged the hole.

    Now I don't have to worry about it and it looks fine.

    Guys will spend $700 on an electronic optic, $250 for an optic cut & custom refinish, $250 on as rail, $100 for a rail fitting that holds a flashlight on, $40 for an HK pistol magazine.

    But $40-$50 to prevent their $600-1000 S&W from malfunctioning and make it look like it hasn't been altered? NO!!!!!! It's SO hard! I CAN'T afford it! Why God?!

    I don't think its the money, its the hassle and worry someone is going to mess up your nice gun. Do tell where you got it done, what parts you bought/where and where you sent it to get done. The entire process lined out.......and shoot us a pic. Im interested if it aint no thing.

    Someone with your skills can easily do it yourself PB.

    I don't show it explicitly in this video, but if you take it down to this level it will virtually just fall out on its own.

    Did it myself. I'm no gun smith.

    Here is one video. I bought his hole-filling part, too.
