S&W 686 plus replacement grips

Hello everyone. Its been awhile since Ive been here at the forum. I have a question and Im hoping someone here has any info. I have a Smith & Wesson 686 plus. The gun came with a black rubber hogue grip with the grip screw in the bottom. What I want to know is, does anyone know of a company that makes the old "coke bottle" type wood grips, the kind Smith used to call "goncalo alves"? And secondly, if such a company exists, dont these "cokebottle" style of grips have the grip screw going thru the side of the grip, rather than in the butt of the grip? And can they be used on my model of gun? Any help would be appreciated.
 
Hogues have an adapter that attaches to the frame allowing the screw to attach to the bottom. After taking the Hogues off just pry off the adapter and then other grips/stocks will be secured with the screw like you are used to seeing.
