Now that some of my revolvers have gone off into the void, it's probably time for some of my spare parts to follow. Today I have two sets of K/L Frame wood grips that no longer have homes.
Ahrends K/L Frame, Round Butt Target Stocks - $45 shipped (SOLD)
No idea what wood these are as they arrived used on my 686+ but it's a very pretty deep reddish/brown. These are in really nice shape with three issues to note:
- There's a small nick in the front of the driver's side stock
- The passenger side stock has a slight chip on the rear, just below the backstrap (shown in photos)
- These grips had some grip tape squares on them when I got them. Thetape came off without issue, but there's a very slight finish change where they were (slightly shinier/deeper since those spots weren't directly touched). Hard to photograph but I did my best.
You can kinda make out the difference in finish in this pic - it's very subtle. Look at the screw hole on the passenger side and go up a few millimeters.
Hogue K/L Frame, Square Butt Big Butts (Custom Length) - $75 shipped
Square butt grips in Goncalo Alves that have been custom sized by Hogue to be a little shorter than "stock". I laid them next to my standard K/L Big Butts and these appear to be about 7mm shorter between the top of the grip and the top of the "butt" portion (about 60mm vs.67mm). These are in good shape but aren't as shiny as they were when new. Because hands.
