A Python and some Sambar Stag

[KalamazooKid]

After a search I see that it's been a while since we've seen some nice Sambar Stag on the forum. I'd love to see what you've got - either on a gun or a knife.

After an extensive search I finally found this set of nicely aged stocks for a 2.5" Python and I think they look pretty fantastic!

Very nicely done!

Oh my, that's gorgeous!

The gun looks good too.

Gorgeous, BUT, a few cylinders of full power loads might have your hand screaming 'UNCLE'!!

I agree, they look quite, quite nice.
I've been around guns for 65 years and just recently acquired a taste for sambar stags. I wish I would have done so earlier when they were somewhat affordable. I will say that my first set was very inexpensive as they came on a very under-priced K22, but they were the ones that gave me the disease.

Here are a few I have in the stable.

K22 1947 vintage (also have the walnuts numbered to the gun):

... and a Mod. 10 and a Chiefs Special.....

An old Colt with Eagle Sambar stags, costing almost as much as the gun and not improving accuracy.



I gave this model 19 to my son with custom German stags on it. I paid $219 for the revolver with standard grips at Whittakers in Kentucky a little while ago when we were feeding the carps in the pond opposite of the shop. The kids were little then.

Every now and then two things come together and mesh perfectly, like chocolate and peanut butter.

You have achieved perfection.
