How do these look on a Model 15-3 snubbie?

sheepdawg · #1 02-05-2012, 11:47 PM

Had these sitting in back of the junk drawer, I asked around here if anyone had seen S&W grips like these before and several posters said these look like someone took some K frame targets and cut them back. Looks like they belong on a Model 15 snubbie. Never throw away anything!

They look really comfortable.............which would make them beautiful in my book.

They look fine to me.
That's despite the fact that my M15 snub wears Uncle Mike's rubber boot grips.

Well dang... It's a milled down smooth target stock for a shorty!!!

Very nice! I love a nice 2" 15. One of my favorites. The grips look great on it.

Now if I could have found a set of stocks for the 2 inch 15's that I have had in the last couple of months I would have kept one!
Great looking grips, do you know who did them up?

To me they look like the perfect combo.

Too big......

I think they look great! Can I come and dig through your "junk" drawer?

I understand where Saxon is coming from. They do look too big for the snubbies but I still like them. I have a set that I modified from targets and they fit my hand better.

Came on a 4" Model 66 I bought a few years ago. I bought it from a lady so I figure she had them made for smaller hands.

You're in Memphis also, you own a bodyshop in Bartlett?

All due respects to Saxon and BamaB, the real question is how do they feel and how does it shoot with those? They do look a bit big but very comfortable.

I had a BK grip adapter on the magnas and liked it at first but started to think my hands were too big for that setup. This feels good, we'll see how it shoots with them this weekend.

I recently put a set of "experienced" targets on my Model 15...

Sportsterguy · #15 02-08-2012, 06:54 AM

I think they look fantastic. Another plus is that if they improve your accuracy and control when firing it you've done real well. Great looking 15 and excellent results IMO.

They really are classy revolvers and their prices keep going up.

Good for you and the rest of us that own one!

Grips are subjective to the person who owns the weapon. I'll take a comfortable set that also look good any day of the week.

Your's look fantastic also. Love the grain pattern and color. I slapped a Tyler on mine for the old school look and am quite satisfied with it and the stock grips. Tried a set of square K frame combats on it and it looked dumb, so the originals and Tyler went back on quickly.

Keep them pics a coming guys!

My new 15-3, bought unfired. Had to put 6 rounds through it and was going to keep it that way but loved how it shot. Here it is behind the snub 34. Posted pics of it last week but here is another shot of it. I'm in love with the little bugger!

Think we should start a 15 snubbie Thread! A very classy revolver IMO!

Sheepdawg, No I don't own the body shop you are thinking of.
He is about 5'6", with red hair and is probably in his late 40's or early 50's.
I am 6'2", grey hair and am 60. Benn getting confused with him for a long time even to the point I had to have my phone number unlisted.

Damn the description of you sounds like the description of me. I'm 3 years younger than you and an inch taller. Gray hair with a white beard. Little children think I'm Santa.

Sheepdawg-if you are going to be at the show tomorrow at the Agricenter I will be there. Got a couple I am trying to trade off.
Lot's of people there will know me and can probably point me out. I'd like to say Hi if you are going to be there.

sheepdawg · #20 02-10-2012, 10:31 AM

I'll be there if I can get permission from you know who.

She had surgery ten days ago and might want to get rid of me for a couple of hours.

This line used to get me in trouble with the ex. "It makes your butt look big".

Seriously, they look great.

jframe · #22 02-11-2012, 12:42 PM

I think they look pretty good. I'm looking for something similar for my square butt Model 10 snubbie. I like the PC magnas with a t-grip, but I really would prefer a boot grip more. The problem is, I can't seem to find them for a SQUARE butt. I've even got a set for a round butt k frame, but I sure do think boot grips on a square butt nickled snubbie would be sexy.
