Smile Engraved 44 Magnum with KB Stocks

44 Magnum, Class A-engraved by Russ Smith and shipped in December 1956. I bought the stocks in Tulsa earlier this month. They are darker than normal birds eye maple and go well with the 44. Click on the photo for a better look.

Class A is the most coverage (the opposite of Colt's classification).

I liked them better on the engraved 44 you had in Tulsa! I have to admit they do indeed dress up the "A" engraved 29 as well! I believe they would improve most guns you put them on!
