Keith Brown Stocks for my .41 Magnum
Keith Brown Osage Orange for the only nickel N frame I own:
The grain looks different from every angle, almost like an optical illusion. Sorry, can't capture that in a photo.

Very nice... I am not familiar with Mr. Brown, but he apparently does extremely nice work. Would like to have seen the backstrap fit, but from what I see they are very well made!

Very nice grips!!!
I personally own 3 pair of Keith's grips. His work is fantastic. There are only 3 reasons why I don't have more pairs at this time and they are money, money and money. I have several more pair in mind which I hope to have Keith make for me in the future. Congratulations on acquiring a beautiful pair of grips which compliment your gun very well.

Wow, they look very nice. I think after these comments( after I find some money) I may look into some as well. Very pretty grips.
Are they comfortable with Magnum loads?

CRSIDES,
Those are really nice! I bought mine from an individual, and I noticed the hardware on your's is a little different. Just curious, did you buy your's direct from Keith.
redbos,
As for me, I prefer smooth to checkered when shooting something that recoils a tad. I have an original S&W set of smooth non-relieved targets on my 4th Model .44, and that is what really prompted me to get another set of smooth ones. Dang, I wish I could take a picture of a gun without all the reflection!

Patrick and Charlie .......... those are great lookin' grips and the color complements both the nickel and blue finishes equally well. I have a set of KB's custom magna's made from presentation walnut and the fit and finish is superb. In my opinion, Keith Brown & BluMagnum craft the very finest custom grips for S&W wheel guns.

I didn't buy them from Keith, an individual had these, and my heart was filled with lust
