Got these No 21 S&W Outdoorsman grips cheap thinking they would fit my K frame but not likely. They are pretty nice quality in my opinion.
So I had them laying around long enough to come up with an idea to try fitting them to my Taurus 431.
I have to plane off about 1.5 mm on the inside of each grip so the top part is flush. I had to remove those semicircle guides and will need to cut off 5 mm from the bottom end and do some minor sanding. The contour is pretty close and I think they will look, fit and feel nice.
Here's the start of the project. There are no grips available other than Hogue synthetic or large Taurus factory grips that I can find for it and I'd like to make another personalized revolver out of this.
After 55 views without a picture, I realize the image was bad. I apologize for that.
