I have a 31 - 1, 32 Smith and Wesson long and I want to get a new set of grips will the J frame grips fit Grips should be the same. Only difference is frame length. Might be different for the early I Frames, though.

S&W should bring back I frames... When they lengthened the I Frame to make the J Frame they determined that it didn't make sense to continue production of an identical frame that was just a hair shorter, so they dropped the I Frame completely. Makes sense.
