Sure Richard, they were made from a botched set of J RB grips that had been pushed aside. I have the factory originals but they are very hard to get any kind of useful grip on.

Wow they are great!
All of my wraparound Roper grips need to have a relief in order to cock them in single action. Yours do not need one. Is it because of the slim design around your hand webbing?
Rich, just the geometry of the I frame I suppose, hammer clears it just fine.

I could not agree more. The factory grips on those Bekearts do not provide much of a grip at all. Those custom Ropers look great and appear to be super functional!!! Well Done!!!

Not my favorite but look at those grips- a model 17 with a pair of Keith Brown grips I bought at the last Symposium- he had a whole table of them although there were fewer pairs every time I walked by…
My favorite shooter, this early post-war K-22 belonged to my father in law's hunting buddy. Two small pits on either side of the frame where it sat in a target shooter's box for several decades.

In Smith and Wesson, I like my 4" Model 34!
Wow what a great thread. RKmesa beautiful guns and Turnerriver those grips are perfect.
Classy guns.

My son has a 63 and a 34-1; both great guns but my very favorite is my 17-1, It is in a class by itself!!
My favorite pair would be a 4" Model 63 and a 8 3/8" M17-4
I am a .22 addict and I can't choose just one. If I did it would probably be my well worn 18-2 with targets.
My June 1968 vintage 17-3 is easily my favorite .22 handgun. It's early enough it's actually marked 17-2 (but 17-3 as per letter). Was a 17th bday gift from my father a long time ago. Still have it and it shoots as well as the day it was new.
just noticed that my baby chief is in my .22 picture. Here it is with my 34-1.
I only have one S&W .22 revolver...a 17-3 so I guess it qualify as my favorite !
Pretty easy one to answer. My late '50s .22 Combat Masterpiece. I have added some Culina's to it as the grips it came with are not matching.
I am a fan of my 17-6.
Two 6" Smiths for my favorites. My 617-6 and my K-22 Target.
I have put a lot of rounds though this modified 18-4 with 22 mag cylinder
Its premodel older brother
Their I frame cousin is handy
I love me some S&W 22s including a 224 Harvey Kay Chuck and a 22 Jet
