Model 10s Are Fun! New Years Picture Thread

Bacon, what sort of grips are those on your 10-5 snub?

That's a good question but I haven't been able to identify the wood yet. I pulled them off and the unfinished wood is dark also. I am not a woodworker and can only guess. Maple?

ETA - I bought the revolver over the net from a dealer so I don't know who the previous owner was.
 
Ah, guess I should have been more clear. I was asking about the configuration and size a bit more. My bad but thanks for the answer as it sounds like you didn't make them anyways.

Currently considering a smaller set of grips than the standard Magnas for my 10-8. The Missus finds even them too big for her hands.

The basic elements of life. Most everything else doesn't matter or help.
 
MacGuffin,

There are actually not that pristine. The pictures were taken in the shade of my "Doghouse" and just turned out nice.

The top, a M&P from about 1952, has a bit of blue wear on the high spots and some small pits to the right side of the barrel. But nothing that effects its shooting. I am contemplating getting rid of the faux stags, they are a bit cheesy.

The second from top is a M&P made in 1919. It also has blue wear on ths high points, someone carried it in a holster a lot. But other wise it is in excellent mechanical condition and shoots well also.

I bought them at the Albuquerque gun show two years ago.
