260Remguy: I do not plan on shooting this little honey - but I would LOVE to get a less pristine example and maybe shooting it.
22 L.R. chambered pistols and Rifles are about all I can afford to shoot anymore it seems.
I am dumbfounded on the values/prices placed on S&W grips anymore!
Even the tiny "J" frame S&W grips are priced outlandishly - and they sometimes sell.
I worked on a 1,200 officer police department and that department used S&W revolvers of all sizes for many decades.
I distinctly remember visiting the departments armorer/armory often and seeing large bins each holding hundreds of S&W grips of every size and condition - and mixed in were many dozens of custom and rubber grips.
The armorer would on occassions dump some of them in the trash!
I wish I had those discarded grips now.
I really liked the S&W rosewood uncheckered grips - they are especially pleasing to me.
Thank you for the link to the Eagle Grips site - those are some stunnigly beautiful looking grips.
I have saved that site and will peruse it more ASAP!
Hold into the wind
