Think they'll ever offer it as a stand-alone item, maybe in J-Frame size?

[Griff]

Guess not. Thanks anyway.

If Taurus were smart, it would offer it to fit lots of firearms: it's ugly, but a very practical, comfortable grip.

Are you talking about the "Ribber" grips? Taurus only uses them on the compact frame revolvers. They really are ugly, and just a tad too small for my hands. Too bad they don't offer a larger version.

I did hear that Houge is making a replacement grip for th Taurus compact frame though.

Doesn't the Taurus use a "stud" type grip frame.Similar to what's on a Dan Wesson?

The ribber grips on my model 627 started to "shed" after about 9 months. Little pieces brake off every so often now. Damn Arizona heat probably didnt help. I have tried to find replacement grips but all I have found is more people asking the same question.

Taurus uses a grip frame on most of their revolvers which is very nearly the same as a Smith K frame square butt but the grips are held on differently and aren't interchangeable with the smith. The only model I know of with a reduced frame is the Raging Bull series has a much smaller frame than a smith but larger than the Dan Wesson. :scrutiny:

Hogue will be offering grips for the Taurus 627 and similar framed revolvers at the first of the year.

There is also Nill Grips.

Though really nice looking, but at a $100 plus, they are spendy

Taurus has replacement Ribber grips on their website if anyone is interested.

You can also get solid rubber grips from Taurus to replace the ribber grips too.

Thanks Ranger.

[Griff]

Yeah, Thanks everybody, the first place I checked was their website and also understand about the frame differences. It's good to know about their eventual falling apart-behavior, too. Guess It couldn't hurt to get the old dremel out and have some burning, stinky fun, anyhow.

Hey; Merry Chrismas, everybody!
