Very odd request - I have a 1980 +/- S&W 78G 22 cal pellet pistol. These were exactly like the 41's and the 41 grips may even fit. I am not sure of that. I am looking for a set of grips. The original is cracked and I would like to replace them. Any suggestions?

Without question an overload

What a haul! I have a pre 29 5 screw in 98% condition that i bought many years ago and I shoot it regularly with mid range cast 44 mag. It did not have the original grips and I looked for YEARS for some original cokes but couldn't find one. Finally a pristine set of diamond cokes came up. Yes, I...

Mine were stupid expensive I bought a 5 screw pre 29 6" blue in about 97% condition probably 30 years ago. No box, no tools, not even original grips. Beautiful condition. It had Pachmayrs on it. I bought it to shoot and shoot it I do. I shoot cast bullets (H&G #503) with occasional full...

I have a set of grips like that They came on a pre 29 5 screw and i always thought they were from another gun. Interesting....I now have them on a pre 24 44 special.

Ditto on mine I did a similar thing. Three years ago I wanted one. I watched GB and one came up. 85-90% - carried a ton and shot little. Even got the original Heiser holster with it. Didn't have the original grips and had holster wear - no one wanted it....or at least was willing to spend money...

Tokyo Rose Autograph This is Tokyo Rose's autograph on a 10 yen note. My Dad was at Sugamo and was connected to the War crimes trials. I have a bunch of Tokyo Rose photos and clippings along with a trove of memorabilia from that time. There is a manuscript titled "Last Will and Testament"...

Hey....it's only money.

NH does not restrict anything (well, maybe rocket launchers) but i carry an old school 3914. They just make sense to me. I am a revolver fan so DA on the first shot is natural to me. SA requires practice, practice and more practice to recover the trigger discipline after the first DA shot.

I have a pre 29 also with 98% blue, non-original grips, no case or tools. It is one that you would not hesitate to shoot....and I do. i shoot mid range loads with cast bullets and every once in a while some full house 44's just to remind me what it does. I have been offered $2000 (he would...

I just purchased a 32-20 4th change in a STRONG 95+% all original and a beautiful bore for $650. Probably top dollar for that gun. Carried but not shot very much at all. BUT, I want to shoot it and not keep it as a safe queen.

I have a 1956 shooter too I have a similar one. 5 screw, no case, no tools, Cokes not there, but I put a pair of Pachmayr grippers on it and shoot the daylights out of it. Cast lead mid range loads only (H&G # 503 w/ 8.5gr WW231) and it is by far my favorite gun. Every once in a while some...

My 3" 36 sb I have an early 70's nickel 3" SB 36 that is MagnaPorted and had a trigger smoothing done. With Pachmayrs it is the PERFECT carry gun. I didn't do the work - I just bought it as is. No one else wanted it. I have probably 5,000+ rounds through the gun. Cast H&G #51 w/ 4.0gr ww231...
