So, when you finally get the “Grail Gun”....

Just so nobody thinks I posted a few and left...

New grips

I love those grips!
Is that a brushed aluminum or something a bit darker: looks like a hint of brushed bronze?

Wow, those new grips sure set it off; looks sharp! So how does it shoot now compared to the rubber grips it came with?

My Grail Gun? S&W 29-2 4"

Had a wonderful full underlug round butt 29 back in the day. Wish I still had it.

The new grips HURT with anything more than wadcutters. Guess I should’ve known arthritis was going to require rubber.

I didn't notice in the first pics but in this one it almost looks like it has a brushed stainless finish. I remember mine being smooth even tone almost polished. But it's been a few years. Is that factory or did someone put the brush finish on it?

Holster wear maybe?

nope. Normal “polished” finish with the inevitable micro scratches highlighted by the lighting.
