Info on J Frame Grips
I bought a used S&W 442 a couple years ago and these grips were in the box. They sound like stones when you handle them, can you help me identify them. Any value?
Thank you very much for the insight.

Looks like a micarta material. Possibly vz grips?

Definitely micarta, but I don't recognize the J-mark for sizing.
Sweet looking grips, however.

My bet is that those are from Altamont.

I bet you’re right. The material looks to be G-10, often used in knife scales.

I believe those are no names that are sold from the bay, I forwarded the details to OP and replies via PM as I did not want to post the link.

Definitely Altamont (they rout the frame size on the back of their grips) and most likely G-10 or some other resin impregnated fabric.
Adios,

^This. I don't think those are Altamont as they stamp/brand all their grips.
