Quit holding out on us: who made those beautiful, practical-looking grips? And what wood is that?
Thanks,

Rosewood Picazo.
She makes some really nice grips. If you get a chance check out her Amboyna Burl grips for the 1911. The thing I like about her is that the grips you see on her site are the grips you are buying. So you can get exactly what you want.

That's a fine looking revolver with superb grips!
Exactly what I hope to find for my wife this year.
She held one with the lock and liked the balance and feel of it. Now to find one without the lock.
Nice catch!

I have a 60-4 and you're going to love it. Wicked accurate and easy to carry either IWB or whatever.

Very nice! And w/Esmeralda's grips! (Jeez, I'm all over 3" bbl. K-frames. Now you gotta remind me how bad I want a 3" bbl. J-frame!)

One of the nicest little packages every to come out of the factory, IMHO. Whoever thought that one up was probably sent to Butte, Montana for the crime of using common sense and good taste.

Enough is enough!
O.K. Armkev, enough is enough! I didn't know you were going to keeping putting it front of my face. You asked me about a week ago if I missed it yet. YES! I'll give you $10 more than you paid for it. Deal? All joking aside, it couldn't have gone to a nicer guy. If I didn't think it would be treated with respect, I would never have sold it.

Funny I JUST found my own last week. Truely a nicely ballanced/sized 'do all" revolver. Working on some better grips myself too.

60-4s are a treasure! Found mine very lightly used in a gun case about ten years ago. Your grips are beautiful! Congrats on the find!
