Pre War N Grip Adapter--Photos added

[quinn]

When was the N frame Pre War grip adapter for service stocks introduced? I understand it was replaced by magnas as standard on RMs in late '35 and on other models in late '36 but remained for some time as an option.

Edit: Grip adapter along with 1930s large medallion service stocks have been installed on RM 1158 which originally shipped in this configuration.

1932 for the N frame adapter. 1934 for the K frame.

The Wesson Grip Adapter was still listed in the catalog in 1941.

Thanks David. I just put it on RM 1158 which originally shipped with one.

Very cool Randy, but we need a photo of RM 1158 with the Grip Adapter.
Since you can't have too many photos of RMs here is 657 with Magnas.

I can't imagine how small your hands would have to be for that grip adaptor. Plus it keeps you from getting a firm high grip even if you have small hands. Still cool with the history.
