  And who did the work?

  They were made for A S&W N Frame Gun out of Brazilian Rosewood.
  By a man called Kurac on another Forum use your imagination
  The man that makes them is a real artist.
  I've seen a lot of his work and it is just awesome.
  He makes them with the old Coke profile
  I don't have any Nickel guns but if I can influence him over the years he will.....That's what I'd like to see them on.
  
  Thanks Guys I know he will like them

  First off, Weatherby, those are BEAUTIFUL! If you have a deep appreciation for the beauty of wood as I do, being in the timber business, these just jump out at you like a beautiful woman!
  
  But now I have a question! STOCKS and not GRIPS? is this another case of MAGAZINES and not CLIPS? By God if you go all the way back to the mid-1950's handling military handguns as I do, those things on the side of the hand piece are GRIPS and not stocks, and these are between the CLIPS that hold the ammo and not magazines!
  
  By the way.....Teach and I have several friends in the business of supplying beautiful wood of various species for stock material for rifles, and GRIP material for handguns, so if you are interested either he or I will put you in contact with them. Again, Weatherby, Beautiful, just awesomely Beautiful!

  Simply wonderful work you ad done on these. Smooth, classic lines and they fit the best frame size S&W makes. Excellent gift!

  Accuracy: because white space between bullet holes drives me insane.

  Nobody on here has quite the way with words you do Russ. But they do jump out at you like a beautiful woman. Good lookin Grips (pardon my vocab here Ken) are very sexy on a revolver. I really don't care what the metal finish is, but the wood is very important and makes the metal look good no matter what it is.

  I do appreciate fine figured wood...CPJ behave...LOL
  That's why I started collecting the Grips.
  My son has his stash too now
  I don't make them wish I had that talent.
  My son he's going to be 12 also has a knack for fine wood
  He likes the darker colored sets,combats are his favorites.
  A Pretty popular moderator here gave him a set of those that he treasures
  
  
  
  
  
  The Stock / Grips thing is mainly S&W's terminology I could care less.
  One of my LGS has an old sign that reads S&W grips sold here so it relatively modern thing.
  Some of the S&W collectors would probably cringe seeing the sign :tooth:
  Yes I tried to get it

  Mike I agree the right stocks/grips can really make the gun stand out and to me it matters

  Yes I agree with you and woodsrunner. It's each to his on in my opinion as far as terminology goes. What bothers me more is that people don't bother to learn the history of where such terminology came from. That's the most important point to me. I don't care what you call it as long as you know what it really is and where it came from.That's more my pet peeve. Because if you know what it is and where it came from, you're going to understand it better, whether you call it a grip, a handle, a stock, or a pink umbrella!!!
