Love these original grips.


I bought this new in '75, (Model 60,.38 SPL. 2"), and always used the original grips with the grip adapter for 17 years carrying it as a backup. It was very easy to conceal. I'm in FL and carry it in my back shorts pocket.

What is this?
It is not often I am so stumped.

factory wood round butt grips with the tyler t-grip has worked for me for 35 years on my j-frames.

Looks just like my no-dash, my favorite carry piece !

I have tried many. e.g., Spegel, Ahrends, etc., for a J Frame and IMO the best are Esmeralda's. They are not only beautiful, but mine have a palm swell that greatly reduces recoil in +p loads.

Anybody have a source for J frame round butt stag stocks?
How about vintage elephant/mammoth ivory?
I tried a search but my google-fu was weak.

Good subject...I love J Frames and I love grips! All of these are Altamont's.

442 with Altamant silver black boot grips

I had a set of Hogue boot grips. They really got hung up on my shirt with my inside the pant holster. I went looking for a smooth wood stock. These are my first Altamonts. I really like the silver/black they offer.

Goes with me everywhere.

I can't say I like it or that I hate it, but I grant you one thing: that sure is different and you can't keep from looking at it.

I'm partial to factory stocks and a Tyler T......


Or bananas.....

I ordered these from Smith & Wesson for my model 60. Large enough for comfortable hold, covered back-strap, fairly smooth for rubber, and don't have to worry about them getting scuffed up.

Thanks for reminding me-

I stumbled across this woman's website a while back but had forgotten about it. Those really are beautiful grips - for all manner of hand guns.

Anybody using them on a J-frame and care to post a picture? I'd sure like to get a look at them on a 642 (or similar enclosed hammer mode.)

Thanks,

Kiteman, try the Boone Trading Company. They have both elephant and mastadon grips.

I love those 'Esmie' boot grips, simple and sweet!

It a skull. The gunsmith shop that I work with use a skull in their logo. It's a duracoat finish.
