Looking to replace a set of Uncle Mikes rubber grips, with a nice set of wood grips in Maple or Cocobolo etc. on my 640-1. Anybody have a set they would part with, or head me in the right direction to purchase new. Looked at Spiegel on line, but looks like a long wait. Thanks in advance.

I have a nice older pair of dark boot grips I will part with for free, I am just down the road a piece in Punta Gorda.
Shoot me a PM if interested.

Pachmayr is making some nice wood grips, smooth or checkered for the j frame. About 45 bucks. I bought two sets, one smooth for my wife's 36, one checkered for my Centennial.

I think I have a set of fancy walnut Herrett's. Appears you found what you wanted though.

A good set of wood stocks on a .38 snub is a beautiful thing. Bob ![[Linked Image]](http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii27/RobertOIF2/3_zps19296ee6.jpg)

Ahrends are a good choice as well.

I like Ahrends, too. But, I just picked up a set of these Altamonts for an N frame. ![[Linked Image]](http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/POsAAOSw5cNYQjbJ/s-l1600.jpg)

That your throw away? No; it rode in my right rear pocket when I was purchasing rock cocaine during my time in narcotics. The tape helped secure the gun in my pocket and was a great gripping surface with sweaty hands. It also didn't look like a "cop gun". Bob
