Very nice Caleb. I was watching them and bid a little on them. Definitely not any of the known makers we are familiar with. I'd lean towards a one-off custom that some handy-man made up for shooting purposes; and scavenged the hardware and screw from his factory S&W stocks.

Regarding SDH's Griffin and Howe ad, the set of stocks on the right (which appear to be for a Colt) look strikingly similar to what we know as a Roper "fully checkered" design and the stocks on the left look very similar to Roper as well. Is it not possible that G&H contracted Roper to produce grips for them? I'd think so......
