J-frame grip pictures - let's see 'em.

[Triggernosis]

I'm trying to decide on some new grips for my new Model 60-4 and would love to see some examples of grips for J-frames. Please post 'em up.

Trigger,
For me............and my "Js" there isn't much out there that is better or more aesthetically pleasing than a set made by Pat Grashorn. He does beautiful work and can incorporate as much or as little "bark" as you prefer. Just beautiful!

Here's round butt & square butt Badger boots.

You didn't specify if you wanted purty, functional, or unusual: Factory Combat, Uncle Mike's Boot, and Bianchi Lightnin...

Spegel boot grips

 

[David LaPell]

Here is a set of Bubinga J-frame boot grips on my 649 that I added 4 coats of Tru-Oil to. They come with a more semi-gloss finish but these things feel great in my hand.

 

[hotrod150]

Those last look like Ahrends?

 

[ar15ed]

Grips are from fleabay, made in Thailand, don't know what kind of wood it is. I altered the curve on the bottom to match the frame better.

Who makes those grips Macbullet?

Very nice, but what are they???

They look like another set of Altamonts or maybe Excaliber???

By the straight thick grain, might be morningwood

 

[Maximumbob54]

They are usually advertised as sandlewood.

Sissy grips...all of them. This is how a j-frame is supposed to look.

 

[Maximumbob54]

I've done that look a time or two:

 

[Old TexMex]

How's this look?

Carried!!!

 

[lkelly]

Real ivories are nice, but hard to come by.

Thease are from the 1950's.

 

[saemetric]

These are factory Pro Series. Also have them on my carry 637.

 

[Triggernosis]

Thanks for all the pictures so far, guys. I'm liking that dark wood like the Altamonts. Keep 'em coming.

 

[ordy]

I have the same grips on my 642 as saemetric has on his 36. Slightly longer in the hand than the stock boot grips. That extra quarter inch makes a difference in that my little finger can get a purchase and it improves the handling. Still thin enough for pocket carry.

J-FRAME GRIPS

Here are a 649 with Rubber, m-36 with pearl...the stags are on a K not a J frame but these are Grasshorn grips Elk stag...great workmanship!!

 

[hotrod150]

Altamont had those Pro Series grips listed on their website for a while and has taken them off the listing. I wonder if they couldn't keep up with demand?
