Square trigger guard

I just got a Blackhawk made in 1978 and it has a straight square type support on the rear tigger guard and the grip frame is steel. I've seen some of these in aluminum or alloy. When I look thru Gunbroker I don't see hardly any with this type of trigger guard. What is the history/story of this variation if any?

The square back (Dragoon) grip frames are shipped only on Super Blackhawks on model having a 6 1/2" barrel or longer. Not difficult to swap them to other models and a fairly common thing to see grip frames swapped. This is what I'd say occurred to this one you've just gotten.
