Default Gone old school...

Well, after getting some used, round butt, K-frame grips on EBay, I put them on my Model 13-3 with an old Tyler T-Grip, and it looks pretty good. Now that I don't have the Bianchi Lightning grips on it, the 13-3 fits in the old, black basketweave Bucheimer BCLW-52 like the FBI used to issue. Looks good.

Damn. Now I have to get some wood grips and a polished T-Grip adapter for my nickeled Model 37. Well, it's a BK Grips adapter.

And, I'll have to get an old style holster for the Model 10-5, too.

Guess I'm going to have to watch that FBI film about double action revolver shooting over and over again, too, if I'm going to go old school all the way.

Tyler-T's and S&W "Modified" Magnas are a perfect combination on all S&W frame sizes... I use them alot. They really add contol without bulk.

Elm Creek, it ain't 'old-style', it's 'retro' according to the grandkids.

Old School is still very effective! Those old pistoleros understood the grim realities of losing a lethal confrontation! They fought to win.

I'm into old school myself. I was a cop when almost everyone carried a revolver. I have a safe half full of 1911s, but I still love to shoot my revolvers.

Until I get a photo of my Model 13-3 with the magnas and T-Grip, my Model 10-5 will have to do:
