I mentioned that I just received a RW grip frame & a set of the 2-dogs/RW rear sights. I wanted to show as best I can, pictures & a description of the process. But to start with,, a few pictures of the differences in the RW grip frame & a Ruger factory g/f.
I chose the "Bradshaw" Bisley type of g/f because I was going to put it under my Ruger .357 Maximum shooter. Since David was very instrumental in helping develop the .357 Maxi,, I felt it was only proper to add his grip design the the gun. Here are some pictures of the small but differences in the shape of the Bradshaw vs the Ruger. The Ruger g/f is the stainless one, while the RW Bradshaw one is brass. The first picture is at an angle,, showing the difference in the backstrap shape & dimension. Due to the angle,, the trigger guards appear different, but are not.
This picture shows the top of the backstrap area which is noticeable. This will allow for proper fitting & contour mating. This also points to the different angle and the different recess cut behind the trigger guard.
This is a picture of the Maxi I'm going to put the g/f under.
And for now,, this picture shows the front sight,, by 2 dogs,, (Fermin Garza.)
