Yet another grip thread

[YosemiteSam]

Howdy all,

I'm trying to find a specific style of grips for a round butt N-frame (624 Lew Horton, to be precise) and am having a heck of a time finding ones that are "just right".

I'd like a nice hand filling grip that still conforms to the round butt, maybe slightly extended ala one of Craig Spegel's models, for a more comfortable 3-finger hold, but without finger grooves. I'm not totally decided on checkering yet, but likely smooth there as well.

Almost all the RB stocks I've seen have had the finger grooves, which invariably end up being in the wrong place for my fingers.

Suggestions?

Hogue has a few grips with no finger groves. Don

I've got Hogues on several guns and most aren't bad (at least one set had a terrible fit), but was hoping for other suggestions. I also can't find anyone with the Hogues in stock, and it can take ages to order from them (BTDT, too).

try a set of banana grips, they seem to be the best of the non finger groove grips I have tried.
Ahrends makes some real nice ones and the price is right.

PMs received and replied to. Thanks for all the tips. Those Ahrends Bananas look just about perfect.
