Well, my 50th Flat Top 357 should arrive tomorrow and I'm trying to figure out how I'd like to re-grip it.
Does anyone have photos of single actions wearing Stag or Antler stocks with little to no bark? I swear I've seen some here in the past.
I think that would look pretty slick and be just different enough to suit my taste.
I've checked Sack Petersons and Grasshorns websites a bit and may have to contact them.

I know CraigC had a pic of his "beater" FT with smooth stags. Very nice!

Patrick made these for my 50th Anniversary .44 Flattop. I asked for about 25% bark, but smoothed out. He can do less if you like. The part without the bark is white, with little bits of red and blue along with the grain. I asked for just a little bark to help hang onto the gun during recoil.

I had Bill Jennings of WY do those grips on the bisley. He has a 2-3 day turn around time and is super to work with. I don't remember his website but he does post for sale on GB and the RF fairly often if I remember correctly. They almost look like ivory with brown flecks in them. I'll try to find his contact info when I get back in the office.

I don't know why CraigC hasn't jumped in with his. They are smooth and very nice! I believe his are by Blumagnum.
