I only bid (low) because I have a very similar set on a K22. Ended up getting the .38 Masterpiece for a deal, even after 21% + shipping, I think. I'll probably sell/trade it since I already have have a 4-screw and 5-screw. Hammer price was $325. I've seen chopped and plated Victories sell for that.

I 'think' they're Sanderson? Thoughts? My existing set has the jig marks on the back.

Those look an awful lot like a couple sets I've had for years that for some reason, I've always assumed were Herrett's. I'll dig 'em out tomorrow and get pics.

I have a similar made N frame set in a drawer..I also believe they are Herrets..

Didn't see photo of the back, but Lew Sanderson grips should have a fairly large number stamped into the back of both grips.

Sanderson's had a flat head grip screw and a different shape and checkering pattern. Those are Herrett's target stocks.

These are Sanderson target stocks.

Definitely Herretts Like these.

Never seen a set of Sanderson grips with a rounded base before. Doesn't mean he never made a set, but I've never seen one. These are definitely Herrett's. In my experience 80% of the time if there is a round bottom they will be Herrett's, the other 20% will be Fitz or Sile.

I'm a Sanderson novice but from what I've seen, anything but dark oiled-like finished walnut is skeptical for Sanderson's.
