The grips are indeed Jay Scott, the version called Black Pearl. I had a pair but found them too slick.

The S&W holsters are of adequate quality, not up to Bianchi or Safariland in my opinion, let alone, say, El Paso Saddlery's work, or Galco, etc. If that holster is unlined, like most I've seen from S&W, it will wear your gun's finish more than a good lined Bianchi or Safariland will. I've found nearly new examples of those at gun shows at good prices.

I like to use smooth rosewood Magna grips and silver Tyler adapters on Model 60's, if I don't use Pachmayr Presentation Compacs, the older two-panel style. But the smooth rosewood stocks are hard to find and can be pricey.

Those guns are a lot more accurate than most people think. I like to use Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel 135 grain JHP ammo in mine, for business carry.

I'm glad that this M-60 found its way out of the safe and onto your belt. I think you'll like it.
