J frame stag grips

[yugolovr]

I have a model 642 with magna grips, and a BK grip adapter. I really want as set of Grashorn elk grips, but I don’t know how well they hold up to carry use. Just want know if they would hold up as well as wood. And since I’m here everyone might as well torture me with pictures of J frames with stag or elk grips.

If you insist.

Not round butt but a nice example of Sambar stag.

Unless you are abusive to your firearms they will hold up just fine

These are Grasshorns and I like them a lot.
They are holding up well. The matching (?)
knife is a Puma Prince.

I have several pairs of elk grips but non on a J frame. Mine all all on N frames. My edc has a pair of Pat’s magnas with a grip adapter. They have held up well for 15 years.

I have heard some folks refer to elk antler as being soft. I always ask, “Softer than what?” Watch when a pair of bull elk decide to determine who is bull of the meadow. The antlers take the brunt of the work.

Model 40 with stags and a Tyler T has seen years of carry with no ill effects.

And then 3” Model 10-5

And my old Triple Lock with stags that are around the same age as the gun.

Here is a nickle Baby Chief with some Sambar stag.

They will hold up just fine. If not dropped or abused they will last as long as you want to look at them. Those Sambar stags posted are very nice but are getting very expensive. Elk is somewhat affordable and can look very nice.
Since we talking Grashorn elk stags here is my M19-3 with a set. So far so good.

Patrick made this set of elk antler stocks for my .44HE 3rd Model (Wolf & Klar 1926), and they're very very nice! However, I felt that the white stocks didn't match the age and use of the almost 100 year old revolver, so I dyed them to give them some patina. Just my personal choice. Elk antler stocks will hold up for a long long time. Get yourself some, you won't be disappointed!

Wow the grips are absolutely awesome.

They hold up fine ! The model 19 has Grasshorn and the model 36 has elk from Ken - Big Mountain Man here in the forum.

Here are some Grasshorn grips.

Can't offer much on how they hold up, because I haven't carried them much, but they seem to hold up well on the Elk.

I don't think you can go wrong with any of the ones sold on the forum by Ken either.

My 1962 ANIB Model 36 with the addition of Bigmtnman reindeer grips...One of my favorites, and I still have the original numbered stocks......Ben

Here’s my only J-frame with stags. It’s a 1955 Baby Chiefs with a set of Ken’s stag stocks.

This should give you some idea of what a set of Mr. Grashorn's elk grips would look like on your revolver. As far as holding up, these have been on there for several years now with no ill effects. I would expect them to hold up as well as any wood grips.

 

[Wingmaster]

Not a J Frame but these Grasshorns are holding up just fine.

Ask and you shall receive! Model 642-2 with Grashorn elk grips and a Tyler grip adaptor.

They will hold up as well as or better than hardwood grips of a comparable design. I have several sets of Grashorn grips, strangely not on revolvers, which I shall have to remedy.

Grashorns on my m60.
