1. A RARE Barrel - cal 38 S&W, NOT 38 Special for the K-38 Masterpiece Model 14!!
I have never seen another one that I can recall. Bill said they built some guns for a British order. I suppose it would be called a "K-38/200 Masterpiece" (but it is marked for the later 146 gr load). I only have ONE. It is new, never mounted on a gun. It has the groove for the barrel pin. Bore is perfect. Blue is 98-99% showing some tiny marks from jostling against other parts over the years.
$175

4. S&W Limited Edition Belt Buckle SET. Set of 3 Buckles. Only 1000 of each buckle were made, and each set here has the same serial numbers. I do not think they were issued as a set. In my opinion, these are the classiest buckles they ever made. Belt Loop is 1-3/8" wide.

Pearl Grips-
Pearl Grips are very hard to photograph. The pics simply do NOT do them justice. You'll have to take my word for how gorgeous some of these are. If they have problems or are yellowed, I'll tell you.
You probably know that mother of pearl is built up in thin layers over many years. There is sometimes softer material between layers that leaves a visible junction because the softer material and the edges of the hard layer above are lost in manufacturing. Those slight crevices are not cracks, but just natural occurrences like voids in grainy wood. Sometimes, those soft layers can cause a flake to come off. I'll tell you if there are any flakes. I will, of course, tell you if there are any cracks or chips. Actually, pearl rarely cracks- it chips or it breaks instead.
I gently washed these to remove any oils and dirt. I'll leave them as washed and you can oil or wax to suit yourself.
___________________
14. K frame FACTORY pearls shown on an M&P from about 1906. A very nice pair of grips. Very fiery white and some iridescence. The yellow in the pics is not there when you see them live. There is a mild 'layer junction' at left heel that does not detract badly. You're gonna love 'em. If not, I'll pay the freight back! $450
___________________
15. K Frame Dished Top vintage pearls. A NICE, fiery white and iridescent pair. They fit well- if anything, they are slightly oversized. A little layer junction on right behind screw. The dark lines on right front are colorn in the pearl, not cracks. Small chips on top right edge are original to manufacture (because I can see a sanding line in one of them). They don't show from most angles.
Trust me- they are gorgeous on the gun in your hand. $200
___________________
16. N Frame Convex top vintage grips. NICE, gorgeous very fiery white and iridescent pair. Slight junction on top left. No chips. Shown on a 1950 Target in the S131000 range. As you see, they are short by 1/32 or so- not much. Fit very well otherwise. A bargain at $225
___________________
17. SOLD > Keith Brown Magnas. N frame Pre-War Style, Factory Medallions. Grips are new, perfect, never used. Medallions look perfect and shiny with full plating.
$435 Shipped and Insured < SOLD

18. SOLD >Keith Brown Ropers. An EARLY set of Keith's N frame Ropers that I probably bought in 2007. He still had a regular job back then! Note the old style hardware that Keith used to buy before he made his own. Remember I told you this- one day Keith's grips will be collectible like Ropers are now. Here's your chance at an early pair. They are new, perfect, and I have never used them. The pics don't do them justice. $500 shipped and insured. < SOLD
