Nothing sets off a revolver like a nice set of grips and some good leather.Barbarous, thank you for the compliment. There are no identifiable marks on the grips. The previous owner put them on. He gets the credit for putting this package together. The Classic clean lines, the contrasts, old/new, shiny/dull, metal/wood/leather made me buy it. It’s great functionality makes me glad I did.
I love the conversion revolvers, I have the .45 version.
I will say though, as a "scrounge for ammo gun", they are heavy. A lightweight 357 and a plastic 9 might actually be lighter and cheaper combined than a big iron convertible. h
I just got it back from Ruger with it’s new 9mm cylinder.

Pat the new cylinder cost $175 plus the shipping cost to Ruger. I got the gun back 10 days after I sent it.
If the cases were partially out of the chamber, and you went past the lock, you had to disassemble the gun to clear it. PITA.
