M29 Custom Grips
I used to own a 3" Lew Horton 657 in 41 Magnum...unfortunately I had to sell it, but vowed I would replace it. A few months ago I picked up a 3" M29 in 44 magnum...blue instear of stainless, sq-butt instead of round, but identical trigger, lockup, etc.
The only problem is it has those small factory rosewood grips for people with little girly hands. I have been searching with no luck for a hand-filling man-sized grip, with factory medallions.
Does anyone have any leads?
I'd love to go with ivory polymer or corian, but they either look cheap or are again for a small framed male.
Real ivory are hard to come by as well.

Mike, There are several people on the forum here that do grips. Patrich Grasshorn makes Stag grips that are unbelieveable. They are very comfortable and good looking as well....
As far commercial grips I prefer Ahrends Grips. They are comfortable to shoot but they do not have the medallions.

Spegel doesn't do Ivory. I tried Patrick as well...he can't make the boot style I'm looking for.

A forum member name Kurac makes fantastic grips that have a great palm swell like cokes. His work is really great and you can get them with or without medallions.
