Default Grip ID....K frame RB Finger Groove

I got these last weekend at the gunshow and have never seen the inside of the grips marked with a raised lettering.

They appear to be wood....

Any ideas as to manufacturer?

Thanks everyone!!

Randy

Those are Rogers Combat style grips with their “Burlwood Finish”. They’re not wood, they’re some sort of synthetic material.

I’ve got a set on my 342 right now and love them.

They have a bit of a cult following and prices are all over the board. A lot of people mistake them for Hogue’s. I’ve seen them go at auction for between $30 and $75. Yours are a bit rough and probably won’t bring that much.

Member SG-688 posted this catalog page about a year ago in a thread on Rogers grips.

You’ll find some good info in the thread:

I bought a pair of the K frame round and k frame square butt at a local gun show last year for $20 total . I don’t think they are worth very much... but I could be wrong

I guess that depends on how you define “not very much”. They’re not in the same class as Roper or Sanderson, but they can do better than a lot of synthetic grips.
