Thinking about round butting it..............

With mustang grips....


I shortened the bbl (3.5") and put on an 11 degree crown, reprofiled the ejector shroud, and had the front sight dovetail cut (trijicon, tritium). But I really like round butts.......definitely have to shoot it first though.

Looks best (to me , ymmv) with the grips in the top photo  -- the Mustangs look like they belong on a target pistol

Yeah was kinda going for a modern L frame with an old school look, even though it has the modern front sight.
And in that vein I think it will keep the service stocks and square butt.

I think you made the right decision. I like those service stocks, where did you get them?

Thanks guys.
Stout- I got the grips off of Ebay, they were made for an N frame, so I had to fit them to the L. Got 'em a while ago and had 'em sitting around.

Did you do the work yourself?

Very practical set up with a vintage tone. Nice.

Bbl length is just over 3.5". And while I might put some Ahrends on for shooting, she's keeping her big square butt.
