Default Ahrends Iowa Black Walnut Grips

Looking to get a couple of these grips for my two 686s. Could anyone please post pictures of these particular Walnut wood grips from Ahrends.
Thanks.... Carl

Here's what I got for sale:


Don't know if they are walnut. Look a little more reddish than in photos. PM me if interested. This is off N frame.

Hi exfebee
If you will look on page 3 of "Man I got to have one of these bad" thread I think you will find what you are looking for. Not Aherns but is Black Walnut.

Thanks for the Hi-jack. He is right on both counts. Beautiful wood and revolver; and lots of luck finding the black walnut. Notice Spegel got his from his back yard, you really rate.

Well according to Kim at Ahrends, he has the Iowa Black Walnut in stock, just not shown on his website. So, now i know what it really looks like & can order a set from him. Kim estimates 2-3 weeks delivery.
