I FINALLY got online with a new photo hosting sight since Photobucket screwed us over.
If anyone remembers, A while back I was hunting with the little hounds and took a dip in the creek. Let's face it, I was crossing the creek on a log when my cur decided to do the same. Came from behind me and knocked me right into the creek. Being that it wasn't that cold and I had to gather up the hounds before getting home, My .44 special got soaked. I took off the grips to dry and wipe down the grip frame. They dried, but warped as well. Trying to flatten them out I broke one of the grip panels. A member of this forum helped me out and lent me some grips to get me through the season. Well I brought the gun to a local gunsmith and he made a new set for me. I will try to get better pics of the grips and add them to this thread, but suffice it to say they are BEAUTIFUL!!!! In addition they are a little thinner so my small hands can grip it better.
In addition, my buddy and I put in a range at his cabin and he, my son and I have really started to ramp up our shooting. We put in swinging targets and steel plates at 15, 25, 50 and 75 yards. From left to right: Colt SA .22 lr(also have mag cylinder)with 4.5" barrel. Ruger NM SS with .22 lr cylinder in(mag cylinder can be seen in pic) also with 4.5" barrel and far right is OM SBH with 5.5" barrel
