Hello again, I was wondering what the grip thicknesses are for factory J-frames? I've gotten some Altamont panel grips, but looking at pics from older models, the grips seem thicker. Is that the case? I also got a m28-2 with panel grips, they also seem thicker. Is it just me or is this the...

Hello all My name's Tim from NC. I've been shooting for about 10 yrs or so, learning in a 1911 platform. I gave that up s few years ago, and found revolvers to be quite interesting, do I've done a bit of research on them. I currently own: Taurus 605 686+ 5" 3-5-7 Series, brand new SW m36-10...
