Default 2.5” 19-3 - I bought it for the grips

Making my Saturday rounds and this 19-3 snubbie followed me home. Other than a little holster wear in the usual spots, it’s in nice shape. Just enough wear to make it a nice carry piece. Besides being P&R, the grips made the $925 (OTD)pill taste a little better. These sweethearts aren’t getting any cheaper.

Edit: This one, like a few of my other 2.5” 19s, has a target trigger and hammer.

CH4, are the grips referred to as K. RB, banana combats?

I bought its twin brother a few years back. One of my favorite snubbies…and the one most asked “how much would you take for it?”

I think they are just K-frame RB Combats.

Just k RB combats. Bananas don’t have finger grooves.

Here’s another of my 2.5” 19s wearing K frame targets aka bananas. They come in smooth and checkered.
