Kurac Grips! Post your pics

Terrific thread - beautiful pictures! I just ordered a set of Kurac Cocobolo Smooth Coke Targets for one of my favorite K frames. This is to be my first set -- probably not the last.

Tennexplorer, I really appreciate the grips you had made from the Koelsch's bridge railing. Great grips and great old P-fired 1200 pounder. I spent some time around the 1049 and her sister ship Voge 1047 - both when they were DE's and later FF's. Great way to keep in touch with your past.
 
Here is a set of smooth coke profile targets on a really nice 29-3

You can't have just one ........... set of Kuracs

The slight palm swell makes them very enjoyable at the range .

Sorry that my pics aren't as great as others here .
A set of Curly Maples on a Model 27 and a set of Claro Walnut on ..... hmmm .....appears to be the Model 28 .

Regards ,
George

I just wish that I had the funds to collect a complete set of n frame S&W medallion grips made by John, one of each of the wood types that he has. The feel, the finish, the grain, the "one of a kind" appeal, and the fit of his work is art following function. I don't know where he gets his blanks, but I think that anyone would agree that they are just plain beautiful. John, keep up the work!

Thanks

Thanks to all my friends who kindly responded to my inquiry of John Culina's grips. They are being made as we speak and I will post a picture of them on my 586-7 as soon as they arrive.
Thanks again,
Lou
 
I have been wanting a set of Kurac ebony stocks for quite a while. I blame this site for my wanting them. Saw a couple of sets and...well... had to have them. Got them on Saturday, they are beautiful on my M27-2. My pics are not good, but the stocks sure are.

I called John about making me a set of square butt magnum targets stocks with a Coke swell to install on my round butt 629. Nothing fills my hand like that profile and I wanted the extra grip with this particular pistol. He said he could do it and I asked about Bastogne Walnut, he said he had a pair in Honey Bastogne Walnut and I put in my order. The fit was so perfect I hardly needed to tighten the screw. He's got any of my future business.
 
Bump for will someone remind me if John opened a store or am I dreaming??? I would have sworn he had a special order page and everything...? Am I losing my mind or just can't find the right link??????

EDIT: Besides... This thread isn't allowed to die...
