Picked up a used 66 no dash and was wondering as to the maker of these grips. They feel a lot better than expected so I may be keeping them. Fit and finish is excellent.

Any markings on the inside? Might be Herrett's or Altamont.

They might be refinished Sile grips. I have a set for a J frame that if they weren't checkered would look pretty close to those. Or they may have come from Sile like that. No telling since they are long closed up.

EDIT: This is the only reason I thought maybe Sile:



Similar but I'm thinking the comments about Mustang are likely to be correct.
