I just inherited a Smith & Wesson Model 36. It has a blued finish, and appears to be in mint condition. I would like to add a Tyler grip adapter to the wood stocks to improve the ergonomics without having to add a gaudy rubber grip.
I see that the adapters come in both a shiny black version and a non-reflective black version. For those of you who have experience with Tyler grips and Chief's Specials, what is the more traditional finish to get for a grip adapter? My guess is that most people in the past were probably getting the shiny black one. Your thoughts on the most attractive/most traditional finish to get are greatly appreciated.
