Just wondering who knows about S&W revolver stocks. I went to 4 gun shops looking for faux ivory grips for a 44mag S&W today. No luck.
I have an N-frame 44mag roundbutt and I took a set of old style(really old) S&W factory wood grips off a squarebutt K-frame S&W model 10 and put them on the N-frame 44mag just to see how far off they are. Except for being squarebutt instead of roundbutt...appears to me the stocks are a match. So now I am wondering why S&W revolver stocks are sold as being either for K/L frame or for N-frame but not for all of the above.
Just guessing but you would probably have to put some kind of insert in the frame if you convert.
