All this talk about plastic and holsters...I'm going to have to make a hybrid carry holster for my one an only plastic gun....Taurus PT111 9 mm.  A recent purchase that I'm quite happy with....$252 out the door.  Goes bang, pretty much hits where I want it to out to 20 yards, and concealable.  BUT, it has not filled my "need" for a big bore DA/SA revolver...I've been thinking hard about a Taurus Tracker in 44 mag, or a S&W Model 69...of course, I'll use heavy 44 sp loads for SD.

A buddy of mine had several of the Taurus revolvers in different cals and frame sizes. Nice revolvers. I like my Anaconda .45 and my N frame Smiths in .45 acp better though, 625s rule, imo. Good hunting.

Balt. Ed....yes, I really like the 625, and can't afford an Anaconda (one for sale locally at over $3K!)... I was wanting something a little more compact/lighter for now.  But, one day, I see a 625 or 325 in my future.

My moms father was German. Last name Frohlich. Ate a lot of good German food growing up. Good stuff. We had tentative plans of a German trip but my wife's stroke ended that. At least we got to Ireland with my best friend and his wife before Lola fell apart. And my last 4 dogs were Weimaraners. They're from Germany. This is the current version, Cletus, a good ol dog. He's gotten alot greyer in the muzzle since this pix.

Slim, those Combat grips are worth $350.00 by themselves.

Nasty grips, have shot an N frame with those grips in 44 mag when my hands were good.  Might be OK if you had little girly hands. ;D

I'm not sure what grips I would want for an N-frame, my .41Mag has a set of Pachmyer rubber ones now, and they're a bit too thin for my taste, but the wood Magna grips that S&W put on it were too big for my hands.

Thanks for the lead Major Sterner.  It is nice looking, but...$$!
Wonder if those grips would fit on a Charter Arms Bulldog??? Kinda like a pig in a tuxedo, though!

Went to see my buddy at the hunting store, and check out his new pistol. He was so excited, at getting a S&W 357... that he overlooked where it clearly said "Taurus, Made in Miami". All and all, still a nice looking chrome pistol, and it fits the hand well. So, I promise to make him a nice holster and matching belt, and got a deal worked out for the AK47. AND there was fresh fried chicken at the WallyMart! Good afternoon :)

I go a different way , I removed to OEM Rubber/Plastic grips on my new Model 60.

The Model 36 has been my CCW 8 years now ( pocket carry ) the Grips are S&W Classic Walnut .
The Model 60 has been fitted with Altamont walnut.

I don't plan to many .357 loads thru the 60  ....both get Hornady Critical Defense.

I hated the factory grips on my SP101.  I swapped them out as soon as I finished my first time at the local shootin' range with it.

I took the tiny rubber grips off of my S&W 342PD and replaced them with these.
