pretty wood grips. Picked these up at last week's AGCA show and put them on one of my M19s.
Show some those pretty grips out there.

Those are oh so sweet Chuck. I'm pretty sure I want a pair! Is there a website you can refer me to where I can pick out and order what I want? (I could also not be lazy and Google it I guess!)

Hey, No problem. Just search Keith Brown grips and you
should find his webpage. You can download a form for
ordering and his site has prices for checkering/wood finishes/
grip types etc.... Keith is a member on here also and he has
been recently in a little bad health but he's still making some
of the finest grips on this or any other planet. He's a good guy who would be happy to talk to you about your choices and his phone number is also on his webpage. He's around Dayton Ohio close by.

You don't often see a pair of rosewood stocks (from the 70s) with a lot of figure, but these are an exception. The second set of rosewood stocks is carved by Alvin White and has an ivory diamond inlaid around the escutcheon and escutcheon nut (circa 1958).

I've never seen any rosewood like that first set and the second set is a work of art. Thanks for showing them.
And weatherby that's a couple of nice group pics, thanks.

Wow, I'm enjoying the show!
Where is the best place to find some factory grips?
I'm looking for a set for my model 19 and my model 14, both 6” barrels.

Keep an eye on the forum classifieds, go to gun shows and ask when you go to gun shops.

You sir, can not show these grips...with out showing the rest of that beautiful revolver!  Please. Please, show the rest. I see engraving on the bottom of the trigger guard, I see were there is engraving going down the back strap. If you feel it would be high jacking this thread, you can start another one on engraved revolvers and show it there. From what I can see that is very nice! Thanks!

Well if we're going to bring Rugers out, these aren't really wood grips just inserts.

I don't think you have to worry about Colts. I believe they used old pallet wood for their grips, oops I mean stocks.
Sorry if I insulted any pallets.

Bama, those are really nice. But are you sure they are grips? They might be stocks.  At least I was told that once on another forum. God bless.

A little Resurrection
I've ventured to the dark side and like it
More spares too as you can see one set magically made it's way to a gun
The smooth ones must have been some sort of presentation type
any coments on those would be appreciated
