Which comes with the book and box? Seriously, deep down inside they are the same thing, which one appeals to you superficially?

586 has wood grips (easy to change) yes the blue looks darn sexy and is advertised as NIB so I presume comes with book and box.
686 has rubber grips but is used so presume no book and box, plus is it has the heavy barrel (full length lug under) so it may be easier to shoot magnum loads?
Looking at the Houge website, I presume the 586 is a K or L frame (they advertise the rubber grip fits both)
