I took the Model 10-5 from the police package I bought out again this afternoon to shoot. It functions and shoots well, but the target grips that are on it don't work for my grip.

What style do I need (is this 10-5 a round butt) and where can I find some used but still fully functional S&W grips that will match the "character" of this gun?

Thanks!

Looks like a square butt

Here is a pic after I took the grips off. They need to be on a bigger gun for a bigger guy!

For a late 1968 vintage, the style of stocks which clint lnl showed in post #9 are the correct originals. This is around the time the diamond magnas went away. I have a 10-6 that shipped in June 1968 with this new style (D47xxx).

I've always liked the Factory Magna Grips with a Tyler T Grip installed. I was never much of a Rubber fan and find the Tyler T is almost essential on J's and K's unless you get a custom set made to your grip.

Some do like the Rubber grip feel, but I have always found that they are a bit too narrow and too long (front to back) for my taste. YMMV.
 
my S&W model 10-5, 6", with serial numbered matching grips.....
