38 S&W Hammerless Grips
« on: April 12, 2011, 07:28:59 AM »
I just finished up my grips on my 38 S&W Lemon Squeezer. The grips are made of Bone and Ebony. They shaped up and polished out nice together. I need to let them set about a week, then repolish and wx them. I made them a bit wider than the original grips so they fit my hand better. Here's a couple pics.





Still got some work to do on the Smith. Plan on re-nickleing it after engraving it. But thats a few months away.  ;)

 Amin, dang son, you did a great job on these, they look fantastic, I'd like to do something like that with my 1886 S&W Lemon squeezer, mine needs new nickle too, but your gun looks in good shape. ::) :o 8)

Yes! It's an ad on! It is welded to the bottom of grip frame. Makes a nice place to put your pinkie finger while gripping the gun and hangs down below your palm just enough to crack a head open without hurting your hand. Not that I have tried it or anything.  ;D
