I have Sambar fever

[PaulDoc]

I can't help myself and I'm not ashamed but there is something about it.

Beautiful, all three!
(I spy a very nice Brazilian Model 1917 in the middle.)

I actually bought some K-frame service stock Sambars without the K-frame to put them on.

there's nothing wrong with you I been collecting Sambar Stag for 40yrs or more most are vintage. I just bought a set this saturday at the gun show for my mod. 66-1 snub only set in the whole show. Getting harder to find and keeps going up in price. Yours are very nice, I like the amber and yellow the best with nice bark...........................................M*

Bruce, Those are exactly the style I'm looking for! Perfect amount of bark, color and medallions. Just picked up a beautiful model 15 snub last week and although the original magnas are in great shape, I'm searching for a set of grips like those. With your permission, I'd like to steal the pic! Will keep me happy til I can find the grips! Bill in MA

Bill,
No problem. I would hook you up, but these are both N frames.

I’ve bought more than few guns just to get the stags.

About six years ago bought a Model 36 with stag grips on it. The dealer thought they were faux. Got it home and pulled the grips, they were sambar's. Kept it for a while and a friend wanted it. Sold it to him for what I had in it ($300). The grips were probably worth that.......

I like them as well. Put a set on my 3” Python.

Nice handguns. But I gotta ask -- what's the story on the porker in the background??

 

[ameridaddy]

None of the Smiths I've bought brand new shined like those beauties!
And of course without those grips, but that's a given.
Thanks for sharing!

Just decorative. Sucker for folk art.

Much as I appreciate the aged look the color of my Sambars is pale, which compliments this early Model 36's blue mighty well.

very much agree. Those look fantastic. I like the white too. Just means that any patina added to those grips "is yours". That's the best patina in my book.

I have a set of what I believe are Sambar stag Service stocks, shown here on a S&W Model 1917 with the S&W grip adapter.

Not a S&W revolver, but some stag I'm happy with.

Not only are the stocks beautiful so is the gun and Brazilian to boot! Grip adapter just outstanding. Just got one myself.

 

[Summersteel]

Yes, stags are beautiful!
Here is a set on a 44HE 2nd model target.

Grabbed these Eagle Sambar stocks at gun shop used for $100. Score ! The model 36 sports elk from BigMtnMan (Ken).

That's a fever I wouldn't mind having PaulDoc.
