    I wish they fit a little better because i do like how they look

    Precisely the same way I’ve found some great grips through the years. Tru-oil works miracles too.

    So i grabbed them this week. They are FAT. They needed to be stripped and have some wood removed for speedloaders but i dont know if i want to shape them anymore.

    Funny thing is that they have some slop on my m66-8 but the m64 i roundbutted fit perfect. I only cut the butt, i didn't remove any metal on the inside of the grip.

    I got them in hopes of being able to shoot heavier loads with wood grips because of the width but i might leave them on the m64 untill i get the pair from thailand ive been waiting on.

    I feel like i could remove some more wood at the bottom of the grips so they dont print as much.

    The Thai grips that I had interfered with Comp-II speedloaders. I got a little too aggressive with the file and wrecked them

    Spegel's are awesome but the wait has been 2-3 years between orders for me for the last 14 years or so. Well worth the wait. Every time I get one order I go right back on the list.

    Here is my last batch.

    Let me check my Tub 'o Stocks.

    I loaned a couple of sets of RB K/L frame stocks to @Cecil Burch at last year's Revolver Roundup, we may need to touch base with him.

    Meanwhile, I shall check the woodpile. I have a two Tupperware boxes of stuff like that.
