I normally go to the local show both days. As a member, I get free parking & admission.
Saturday was very crowded, and hard to get in to tables and look. Saw a nice shooter nickel 57 for $700. Left with nothing.
I debated going back today. Much less traffic. Did see things that weren't possible to see Sat. I was walking by a table that had some nice S&W stocks. (like I need more) A customer had a set that I wanted in has hands. Seller kept asking me what I wanted to see. Did not answer him. Customer asked for a lower price. Seller said no. They went on the table, and into my hands. Don't see too many round butt targets around here. I like the looks and the feel. These were N frame. They appear to never have been on a gun. OK, so for $40, they were mine.
Can anyone tell me what era these may have been from?
Walking towards the door and spied a holster for my 10-5 snub. Was a good deal at $5. At least I left with something, and glad I went back. Bob

The speed loader cut and the silver washers combine to suggest the 1980s.

I don't happen to know of N frame ones like that.
Good buy

Thanks, not that it matters much. I was just curious. Will probably go on my 625JM. Bob

They look like K RB targets. Have you tried them on a N frame yet?

Very likely K frame. They are commonly bringing 135.00+ now on ebay. More if Alves

Once again, I believed what somebody told me. Seller said he had them on a N he had there to see if they fit. Said they did.
Tried them on my 625, and they don't. Does not matter, have a R.B. K frame. Thanks for the help! Bob

The holster for $5 was a steal for sure. That is more like something you would find at a yard sale not a gun show.

You made two great buys today. I found these smooth targets recently for $115 and didn't think twice.

I would have bought the grips too. That is if I had known there was a show this weekend.

Round smooth targets are just beautiful in my book! Had an awesome set for my 36. Bob

If I would have told you, you would not believe I had the right date! Bob

Even though you're not 100% reliable. You do get it right once in a while.

Those are a nice set of K frame round butt target stocks.
Mod 19-3 on the bottom of the pic ...


At $40 there's a hundred bucks "left on the table" as they say, in your favor.
Those stocks are my favorite for newer K frame revolvers. (As in 80's revolvers! )
I have heard that round butt targets for the K frame are notorious for cracking around the screw when used with heavy loads.
I have had two sets that I bought cracked and sent off to be repaired but I have not had any break for me.
Having said that I only shoot .38 spl in the gun pictured above. I change those stocks out for finger grove Hogues when I shoot magnums for comfort as much as saving the wood grips.

Well . . . you could try a pair of ivories like these!

Very nice handgun and stocks!

My ol' revolvers don't deserve that kinda' treatment!

GF

You used to have at least one nice revolver. So nice it deserved nice grips and a nice home. Guess it found the home...elsewhere!

Good find at a really good price. I have a set of RB Targets on my Mdl19 4" and really like them.

I too like the RB targets. They fit my hands better than most factory grips.


My 19-5 with them.

"Smoothies" Beautiful gun! Bob
