I know that members have posted occasional pics of their S&W's made around 1915-1920, with the gold S&W medallion at the top of each stock panel.

But the photos are usually fuzzy or too small to see good detail. One such thread here today has that problem.

Can/will one of you who has a good camera and knows how to use it post some pics of an M&P or .44 Hand Ejector, etc. with those grips in good condition?

I'd sure appreciate that, as will others.

I once had a Hand Ejector .455 MK II with them. Regret having had to sell it, but I needed college tuition...

Ideally, I'd like to see a five-inch M&P, blued, with the grips. Closeups of the grips, too.

Thanks,

T-Star

In my first post about my 1915 M&P "Pace 40" posted with an exceptional picture of a revolver with gold medallion grips, here's a link:

You can also look in the accessories classified section in my add and see a couple of closeups of the grips canoeguy has on his gun.

Hows this?



Not the best medallion but nice enough grips. The gun in question shipped in 1912. These are on a .32-20 M&P not an N frame.

If you're just looking for a good shot of the medallions here's some original N-frame medallions on a pair of Keith Brown reproduction pre-war N-frame service grips:

JayCee-

Thanks The lighting is too bright, but the images are otherwise great.

On originals, the medallion is usually tarnished. These new one look terrific.
