Grip model 36

[Robinjo]

Hi,
Europe here.
I’m looking to change the grips on my model 36 to “fatter” due to a problem in my hand. The thin ones I just can’t get enough grip.
I have a 1969, J122*** if I’m not mistaken, round butt.
Any idea’s. Ordering from the us is difficult due to laws here but if someone can point me to one, please.

I'd try Ebay. I got a set from there for my 686 RB that converted it to square butt size, Worked much better for me. Some of them come out of Taiwan, may be easier for you.

You have a grip maker right next door.

Try the German company Karl Nill for hand-filling walnut stocks.

Would a grip adapter help you? I have an M&P airweight (later became the Model 12) that wears one well. This one was made by Tyler but Pachmayr and S&W once made them also (BK is still making them). The Tyler T-grip and BK grip adapters are cast aluminum, the others are plastic.

A bit late, but Welcome to the Forum!

I just recently got a new, larger grip for my 36ND from Altamont Grips and I love it. Fits my hand much better and they have a lot of choices. Web site is altamontco.com

I know them but the problem is that customs here see that as gun part and depending on whatever I get it or not, besides that many us companies due to this not want to send anymore. Understandable
