Sure. This is a 3" model 36 round butt that I think I have pachmyers on. They feel good. I edited and added another picture of 3 J frames I have. Those are eagle secret services on the top model 40, they make them for the 36 too.

This is my 36 with the standard Hogue Monogrip. I love the grip, fills my large hands well, but makes concealment a bit more of a challenge. And folks are right, the sticky rubber on the grips can stick to a shirt tail. But for me, the advantages far outweigh the downsides. My wife has the Hogue Bantam grip on her 642, and it's much smaller (one less finger groove).

Cheers!
Tom

These are actually Uncle Mike's, but Hogue makes the "Bantam" grips that you may be referring to. They are very much like the Uncle Mikes shown here on a model 60, except that they do not require a retaining screw.
Unfortunately I do not currently have the "Bantam" to show you, but I can recommend them as I have used several sets in the past...very concealable as well.
Hope this helps...

These are the factory Hogue's on my 36-6. They seem to be just right for my stubby fingers. Not too big and not too small.

I put a set of Precision Hideout Grips on mine and I love them. They aren't fancy but I think are the perfect balance of concealability with control.

My 36 has the Hogue Bantams on it. They are great. I have larger hands and simply wrap my pinky under the butt. The only thing I don't like is putting them on or taking them off. I'd rather a 2 piece version that would screw together...as I have a compulsion to completely strip my 36 down to clean it. The bantams can be a pain. But if you're not one to take them off/on often no worries.
