New to forum trying to attach pic

New to forum and trying to attach a picture of two N frame snubbies I have. Will see. The PC stainless now has Crimson Trace laser grips and the wood grips for went on my Alaska Mouse gun Night Guard. Field loads are Buffalo Bore 255 grain Hard cast now and I like them.

 

[AlaskaDawg]

629 with cut down Crimson Trace grips and Cylinder & slide fiber optics.
No excuse for missing now.

Who cut down the laser grips and how? Would be great for my snubbies as well. Nice looking and practical.

Trigger like smooth butter, accurate, and one of my Primary Carry

Bill's awesome 29 has me wondering how common fixed sight n frames are. Trying to visualize the 27 version of this configuration.

My 624 and 325NG.

Cheers,

AlaskaDawg - Even though this thread is for N-frame snubby's, you may want to add one of these to your collection of .44mag snubs since it is named after your home state - a Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan 2.5 inch 44 mag.

Story as much as the firearm

Great thread!

I have several N-frame snubbies...these are some shots I happen to have on file of my .45ACP 625. (I can't recall the dash number, and I'm too lazy to go out to my safe and get it out to check it, LOL! It does have an MIM trigger and frame-mounted firing pin, but no internal lock.)

Interesting story about the grips...after buying this revolver and shooting it, I decided it was a keeper, and looked into having some nice grips made for it. I called Roy Fishpaw around the fall of 2000, and he put me on his waiting list. About eight months later, he wrote to me and told me to send him the 625 along with a description of what I wanted. I suggested instead I deliver it to him personally, and he consented.

I live in northeastern Maryland, and Mr. Fishpaw's home is in Lynchburg, Virginia. On a beautiful early summer morning in 2001, I saddled up my motorcycle, and rode to Lynchburg via Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway. It was a glorious ride, and I got to Lynchburg late that night.

The next morning, I went to Mr. Fishpaw's home, and spent about an hour there with him. He measured my right hand, and asked what I was looking for, and what kind of grips I wanted. He showed me a photo album of grips he's made, and then had me select the wood for my grips from his stock. He was a real gentleman, and my visit with him was truly a delight.

(Leaving Lynchburg to head for home, I fulfilled a longtime goal: I rode to Red Hill, which is Patrick Henry's estate and final resting place near Lynchburg, and visited his grave to pay my respects and thank him for what he did for our country.)

In the fall of 2001, about 5 months after my visit, Mr. Fishpaw shipped my 625 back to me, with these beautiful French walnut grips installed. They are flawless, and perfectly fitted.

This particular 625 is a treat to shoot. It balances well, is very accurate, and has a great trigger. Someday my sons will bicker over who will get it, and be able to tell my grandchildren a neat story about it...

Enjoy the story as much as the stocks and firearm. Thank you.

Another 625-3

Couldn't help myself... Just picked this up today from my FFL. I'm not a huge fan of rubber grips (except on my 629), so the Talo combats found their way onto this one as soon as I got it into the shop...

Ususually I hang in the background and drool over the pictures others choose to share, but finding this thread, I decided to add my pictures to it. Thanks for viewing.

I know this has been shown over the last two or (six) years. But, how many carry a snub nose N frame in a IWB holster?

I do! It is just a J frame on steroids.

 

[Xfuzz]

Been tryin to love N frame snubs for awhile...never could.
Think I will stay with this set up.

 

[Nedroe]

Roll Yer Own.......

I too, saw Bill's outstanding Model 29 fixed sight snubby, & decided I was gonna have one.

Allen Frames post's inspired me too, so, I figured why stop there?

I'M HAPPY WITH 'EM.

So happy this thread was resurrected. 3-inch N-frames are just gorgeous.

Here's my 29-3 Lew Horton:

And a couple of pre-lock Bloodworks...
