how about a N-Frame grip and leather show

Good looking rigs sheriff, mind if I ask who did them, and thanks for putting them up

Here are a pair of model 28s wearing Alaskan fossil bone by "Executioner".
Seeing all these gorgeous 41 Magnums has me bordering on placing an order with the S&W PC for a model 58 w/a 5" barrel.

I LOVE the 41 magnum!

I inherited my Dad's Ruger 3-screw flat-top 41 magnum. It's probably not had more than a full cylinder shot through it; it looks like it's factory new. It was his favorite gun, and he was a gun collector. Nothing terribly expensive; in fact, he restored old military rifles and those rifles account for half of his collection. My brother and I split them. I didn't care which ones I ended up with as long as I got the Ruger. He used to get it out on occasion and wipe it down and work the action, and just look at it and enjoy the pride of possessing it. I was with my Mom when she bought it for him for his birthday. I may just go the custom route with S&W if I can't find my friend pretty soon.
 
Just a M28-2, with Grashorns, BK grip adapter, and some useable leather.

Iggy, thanks for re-opening this old thread. I hadn't joined the forum back then and had not seen the beautiful collection of guns, grips and leather. Chris, thanks for starting the thread in the first place.:D Here are a couple of pics of my 629-6 and 60 with Lobo pancakes. The 629 is wearing Hogue bantams and the 60 has Altamont magnas.



 
Wow, I don't know how I missed this first time around!

Some really beautiful, and even stunning work here! Thanks to all who shared the magnificent examples of leather and grip craft!

My humble contribution, just a stubby M29 in a Mernickle rig, belt was done at the same time, too. Grashorn stags and a Tyler T round out the package.

 
Love this thread

I had to sell all my guns except my G26 EDC because I was short on funds, but I still love looking at yours!
 
A friend of mine's truck wears a bumper sticker on its bumper:

"I wasn't born in Wyoming, but I got here as soon as I could."

That's every bit the way I feel about this forum so I'm resurrecting an older thread to share a special rig. A cowboy named Andy--somewhere in his late 70s or so--ran the Longhorn Saddle Shop while I was attending the University of Wyoming (post Air Force). He measured and made this rig for me. For many years he also made the white leather outfits worn by the ladies of the Cheyenne Frontier Days. Andy's gone now (RIP), but his memory lives on for those of us lucky enough to have a piece of his work.

M 629-3 Classic DX with NILL's in a PWL #1011



M 29-2 with HOGUE ROSEWOOD in a Harry Maacken Cross Draw



2 more pictures from the NILL's, the first pic didn't justify them:






Better wood with special screw (double sided screw head with slot and rosette).
They are so precisely CNC-machined, that it is a little tricky, to remove them
without damaging (also my first post ever).
