Default J Frame Conversion Grips

Does anybody know if anyone makes Magna style round to square butt conversion grips for J-frame Smiths? I'm looking for a set for my round butt M36. The round butts are just too small for me to hold on to reliably when shooting hot +P rounds, but I also want to keep it original looking so rubber or target stocks are out of the picture. Basically I want it to look and function like a stock square butt Model 36. Thanks in advance for any leads.

Thanks for the link but I couldn't find the conversion grips on their J frame round butt page. Maybe they stopped selling them?

My favorite J-frame conversion grips are the old Herrett Shooting Stars.

Default Model 36 J conv. Grips

Great for shooting, but a little big to carry!

I believe the Altamont grips that Injunbro referenced are their "Altai" style. They can be found on this page:
Smith & Wesson J Frame (Small) Round Butt Revolver Grips | Altamont Company

They are the same style as those that Smith & Wesson used for the Model 60 pro Series, as pictured by BlackTalonJHP. Here is a set of Smith & Wesson branded Altai grips on my 640 Pro Series;

Default Pretty close

Sile made these years ago and they can still found if you search. They mimic S&W factory Square Butt, but not exactly:
