Look at what I found!!
I went today to a gun shop today looking for a grip adaptor for one of my revolvers. What happened was is that the shop owner had a large box he has had for years, and I ended up getting all of them. So I ended up with PLENTY of grip adaptors. Pachmayr, Mershon, and a few Tyler T's. The Mershon's are nice because they list being able to fit the .38-44, so I know they have some years. All of those boxes are full of adaptors, about 40 or so in all.

Sir'
You have even outdone Yourself! You must have dealt well with the owner for him to unload those goodies on you. Congratulations!
You've had enough problems over the last year or so; let's hope
this marks a turning-point. I hope things continue on this course.

That's a treasure trove! On Ebay they'll sell for a fortune one at a time! I'm still mad at Pachmyer because I talked to them at the 2011 SHOT Show and told them they should make their grip adaptors again. I was told there was no interest and that no one buys revolvers anymore. Talk about out of touch!

Great, now you can retire!!! 
Don't sell them for less than a bill apiece- I need mine to appreciate. 
I hope y'all know the above was tongue in cheek  ...sort of.

Now you'll have to buy guns to fit the grip adapters.
