+1 on whomever recommends Hogue Bantams. I was very pleasantly surprised, and enjoyed my range day plenty. Definitely a recommendation.

Found something on eBay. Anyone have any experience with Handicraftgrips? New Smith & Wesson S&W J Frame Round Butt Bodyguard Grips Silver Medallions Hard 7426150130139 | eBay

Smh. I gotcha. I'll HOPEFULLY be able to find some factory panel stocks that will fit. Any suggestions or advice? They would be going on a m36-10, just purchased about 6-8 months ago before I knew any better. Like I said, panel grips. Trying to avoid target stocks.

Hello again, I was wondering what the grip thicknesses are for factory J-frames? I've gotten some Altamont panel grips, but looking at pics from older models, the grips seem thicker. Is that the case? I also got a m28-2 with panel grips, they also seem thicker. Is it just me or is this the...

Gorgeous, and congrats

So, just picked up the gun yesterday from the 'smith. According to him, after taking it apart and giving it a good look-see, he didn't see any issues. He said a little rust inside, which he cleaned up, but all in all, it should function fine. I'm no expert by any means, but I have to admit, for...

Gotcha. Thanks to all for the insight!

It does. After looking for it, it states the "caution" message on the side. Still gotta clean it up. Not too much, it's my home defense gun, but my plan is to polish it up and get new Hogue grips for it.

Hello, So I recently bought a 5946 in GB, just received today. Can you tell me the history of this item? Born date, police issue, etc. That would be really helpful. Thank you for your time and expertise. SN# VHM0923 It's my first SW semi-autos. All metal pistol. Sweet.

Been shooting off and on about 10 yrs now. Just started getting into revolvers for the last year. Seemed like the logical choice for carry, SD, fun, fondling, etc... So I got me a 36-10, classics line. Love it.

:mad:Just an update: Dropped off the 28 to a gunsmith today. I appreciated the old-world wisdom and knowledge he had. Very much excited. I'll be picking up gun in a couple of weeks. Pics when it comes:)

Yeah, when I dropped the new one in place and then tested it, it wouldn't even move past a quarter inch or so. I would have to grind it and fit it up a little more to be functional, so I decided against it.

Soooo... I purchased the part, then after some careful planning and fit-up to see if it was feasible, I decided against it. And I didn't want to risk screwing it up just to bob the installed hammer. Just FYI, the 36-9 hammer didn't seem to fit the 36-10 gun, and I didn't feel qualified enough...

Gotcha. Thank you much
