I have a perfectly delightful 21-4 Thunder Ranch .44 Special revolver. The one and only thing about it that is not to my satisfaction is that I would very much prefer it to have a square butt rather than the issue round butt grip. From time to time I've used Pachmayr Presentation grips to get around that little issue. That particular approach works well. However, aesthetically it leave a lot to be desired.
I would like to find a way to have nice wood grips for this revolver. I've been thinking of saving my pennies and then having some nice grips made by one of the grip producers whose work is so often shown on this site. The Pachmayr PG that I use is a size small and is just about ideal for my use. Given that it fully encloses the grip strap, I've been thinking wood grips could made that would mimic much of the shape of those grips tapering up gracefully to the top of the grip. If the grips were checkered, etc., the result I think would be a very useful improvement for the current design.
Does anyone have any RB to SB type grips that they have found useful, enjoyable? Thoughts... pictures would be appreciated. Sincerely. bruce.
