I recently posted a wtb post on the Brian enos forum looking for a few hard to find smiths, one of them being a 610 3" from the Lew Horton. I was contacted by a member saying he sold one to another member a few years ago and that I should send him a pm. So I did that thinking it was going to go nowhere. I get a pm back saying he was actually looking to sell, now I normally don't get that lucky. So we negotiated a little on price and ended up settling on $925 shipped which I knew was well below market value. It did not come with a box but did come with plenty of moon clips. Gun was wearing a set of hogue wood grips and tritium night sights front and rear.
Now on to the grips. Last September I was getting tired of paying big money for factory n frame rd butt combat grips. The quality was not there, especially for the price. So I contacted Kurac, since he has made me a few other outstanding grips, about him making me a set of combat grips from a nice piece of wood and finished right and the price was right along the line of the factory combat grips that I was underwhelmed with. He said he had never done anything like this before but was open minded. He needed a set to make a copy from so I sent him my favorite set of combats from my 627-0. He told me up front that it would take while to the grips done since he had other projects goin on at the time.
So I get am email a couple of weeks ago telling me the grips are ready and to send payment. Ended up getting the grips within a few days of the gun. Now nothing against the hogue wood grips but they are not Kurac grips. Finally a pair of combat grips actually worth $150.
