Show Off Your Smooth Grips!!
I thought I would start a thread where people could show off their smooth/uncheckered wood grips mounted on S&W Revolvers. It seems the majority of grips are checkered and I happen to prefer the look and feel of the smooth finish.  So here are my smoothies on my 28-2, both hailing from 1977.

Model 629 engraved and inlaid with gold by S&W's Master Engraver, Wayne D'Angelo, in 2001. The revolver is fitted with stocks by Nill and they are made of Amboyna Burl. The 629 shipped from the factory with the same type of stocks, but made of figured walnut. I ordered these from Nill and it took about six months to get them.

Smooth stocks made of Goncalo alves on a 44 Magnum with a factory 5-inch barrel and Class A-engraving that was shipped in September 1957.
Smooth stocks made of Goncalo alves on a Combat Magnum shipped in March 1957.

Here are just some of the smooth grips I have gotten over the last 30+ years at various gun shows, and gun shops. All I have to do now is find guns for them.

My Model 29 with S&W Rosewood Smooth Grips, Excellent Condition.
Same grips on a different gun, look much better on the Nickel 29 than the blue 28.

I know this thread is for smooth wood grips, but there are a few nice pictures of non checkered composite or pearl grips. So I thought I would post a pic of my M36-0 with Collins Craft Black Corian grips and Tyler T.
