presentation grip????
I have a set of K/L presentation target grips in my box that I picked up in a group grip buy, and am having a hard time trying to remember what they might fit. I can think of numerous N frame guns that have presentation grips on them, but the K/L's are escaping me. What K/L framed guns came with target smooth presentation grips on them? Also, were there any that came with magna style presentation grips? TIA...

There are a lot of police commemorative K-frames that used the presentation grips (defined as having a cut-out on both grip panels so as not to obscure any commemorative marking on the side plate).
Here is a PASP 75th anniversary commemorative...
Adios,

From the factory, these mostly came on commemorative or special order guns (50th anniversary of Highway Patrol/Police, etc.). The one example that came with Magna stocks that I can recall was the Georgia State Police model 26-1, but there are probably others.

I acquired this 1978-vintage 66-1 new in the box in 2006. It came with a nice set of smoothies. The label says "TS" for the stocks - whether this means "target stocks" or "target-special or smooth" I'm not schooled enough to know, but they sure are beautiful.

Indeed the Texas Rangers Commemorative was a Model 19-3 and it also had the smooth presentation stocks but they did not wear S&W medallions but rather the Star of the Texas Rangers right there on each stock. Pretty cool!

Not sure what these originally came off of, but they look nice on my 66-1.

I only have one S&W with smooth grips, they didn't come on the gun but I sure like the way they look.
Model 14 with smooth rosewood stocks.

These aren't presentation grips, with the right side cut out, just smooth targets. I like the look of the lighter grips on a stainless gun.

I don't know for a fact that these came on my 1975 5" 27-2 or not but I'm guessing that they did.
