I had a 1920 Colt Government model with MOP stocks. The very first shot a large chip broke off at the screw hole. They were slightly loose, and I didn't realize it. I think them being slightly loose is what caused the break.

I just wanted to share some pictures of my new grips from bigmtnman. Ken is a true craftsman!! The feel, fit and looks are fantastic!!!

I will take the "slim" N frame grips.

Reduced to $450.00 shipped. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

I purchased these to own an example of Mr. Brown's extraordinary craftsmanship. They have not been on the gun while shooting. Shown on my model 24 to illustrate how they fit, obviously they may fit your gun differently. These are posted for sale on the Colt Forum as well. Please PM with any...

I placed a WTB add here on the forum and Raystown contacted me saying he had what I was looking for, a 5in Pre Model 27. We spoke over the phone about the gun and of course Smith and Wesson's in general. I received the gun today and it's better than described!!!!! Just beautiful!! He kept me...

That's easy, 1953 Pre-27 and Pre-28. They were both very clean. The picture of the Pre-27 is lint and oil on the cylinder.

I currently own both of the guns you are seeking. The outdoorsman was shipped in 1934 according to the factory letter. The 4 screw 29 is from 1960. I'm sorry but I do not know how to PM.

I'm a recent transplant from Northern Nevada (Dayton) to Plano,Texas. My passion is N frames and more to the point, model 27s. Unfortunately, my collection is quite small as I have let several get away. However, the stunning pictures and wonderful commentary on this site have given me motivation...
