What is the frame letter of a Mod 60-14
J frame grips are too small for the 60-14

All Model 60s are J-frames

When you say too small, are you saying that the grips do not fit the firearm? Or are you saying that the grips are too small for your hands?

There are numerous designs of grips for the J-frame. Here is a small sampling

Too small for the frame on the 60-14 357 mag

Caliber does not matter, all model 60s are J-frames and take any J-frame grip.

Many of the J-Frames pictured above are built on the older J-frame and the rest are built on the J-Magnum-Frame.

What grip are you looking at?

Can you provide pictures?

Sounds like you purchased a set pf I frame grips. Same shape but just a hair shorter.

If indeed the OP grips ARE I Frame grips, he/she should post them in the "Accessories/Misc - For Sale or Trade" section IF they don't need/want them.


Last set of TRUE "I Frame" grips I saw sell locally brought slightly north of $100 for a set that had the carp beat out of them.

There are two styles of J-frames. The Round Butt and the Square Butt. Dimensionally, the two sizes and shapes haven't changed in over 60 years.

I forgot there is also a set of J frame grips with a smaller washer on the back those on fit the M40. I once sold a like new set at auction for $250. We need pictures.

Sorry to drag this thread up after all this time but I'm looking for an answer of square butt or round butt on a Model 60-14 . Will obviously effect the grips I what to buy ( made for square butt I'm guessing ) as the back of the frame is exposed in the back of the grip .

Round. With very few exceptions, mainly in the Classic line, all new Smiths are round butt.
