Agreed. I'm thinking a cheap pair that needs refinishing would be perfect. Does anybody have a suggestion for stripping the old finish without "melting" the checkered area of the wood? What kind of finish does smith put on the target grips from the factory? Maybe I can use a solvent.

I was wondering if they are original. I like the look that person created. My only gripe with the standard targets is they look a bit "blocky" and disproportionate on the guns that don't have a shrouded ejector, or full lug.

Here they are together... The Pre-10... VVVVVVVVVVV And the 18-2 VVVVVVVVVVV

Thanks for the offer for serial look-up. See below. I have been told approx 1966.

First post here and just want to start off by saying hello. I've been lurking for a while and this site seems to be the best place to get an opinion on the gun purchase I'm considering. It's a model 18-2 with no box. I've seen the gun in person and the bluing is breath taking. Appears to...
