Oh yea, that larger version logo is the cat’s meeeooooowww!
I hope it will be. 18mm is the measurement of the circular DW logo that Hogue put on the 2018 factory grips
Anuwat wasted no time getting the new logos on ebay. I thought he would wait for feedback. You can find some variety of the 50th logo here:

Well he is not going to sell many under "Sporting Goods/Hunting/Other Hunting I told him months ago when listing any Dan Wesson stuff you need to put it under "Sporting Goods/Hunting/Gun Parts/Pistol Parts" When looking for Dan Wesson stuff ebay automatic sets the browser to pistol parts. If you want to see everything you have to change your browser to "All Categories" to see everything listed. If you don't you do not see everything listed under Dan Wesson!

And that's the thanks I get. He blocked me from buying any more grips because some of the ones he sold me came apart. I also told him before why he was not selling them fast because he has them listed in the wrong place. He starts discounting them most likely because they were not selling and it's because of the way he has them listed. You should not block a buyer just because a grip you made came apart!

In his auction with the 50th Anniversary logo, he doesn’t specify if the logo is the smaller or the larger 18mm version.
There is only Small Logo design. There are no Large Logo Grips at the time. Since these logo grips were supposed to be prototypes and with feedback, changes were supposed to be made. I do not expect any Large Logo Grips before June. But who's to say that he won't list them before he sends me the 2nd prototype?

I do not think I would put one of these on my 2018 CZ pistol pac. I really like the original rubber grip showing the DW logo. I wish I had them for my First Issue guns they came stock with the rubber Hogue grips. There are both large frames so no chance of ever finding a Hogue rubber grip with a DW logo on it. I have never even seen one of the Hogue rubber grips with the DW logo come up for sale!

It was never my intent to see these mass-produced and end up on ebay. This "started" as a special personal project.
An 18mm logo just like the 2018 Hogue grip is being discussed as prototype#3 but ONLY if he can duplicate the raised bumps on the Hogue grip. He can only dimple like a golfball.

Yea i'm talking about the one like this with the DW logo molded into the rubber. They were only on the CZ 357 magnums! I like the fact they are pretty rare and only came on the CZ guns!
I believe these were only on the CZ Dans made 2017 to early 2019? Everything else just has the standard Hogue logo. In 2017-18, Dan Wesson had decided to phase out revolver production by 2020.

I don't think so tim! I have pictures of the guns in articles from 2015 and they had DW logo rubber Hogue grips. THe only way you could tell you got a 50th anniversary was a sticker included in the case, the date on the side label and it's possible the 50th Anniversary belt buckle came with them but I do not think so. Never saw one included with one for sale. Maybe the experts will weigh in on that but for sure the DW logo Hogue grip was on the guns when they came out in 2015. Also the other article I read said 2018 was the last year of production though there were guns left over and sold thru 2019.

Another thing I noticed is for example, this gun which was just on Gunbroker the label has no date. The serial number is #978 so a pre 2018 gun. It has a DW logo grip. Looking at the serial numbers there was a very small amount of these guns ever produced! Less than 3000? Mine which has a date on the label is #1714 unless they made different serial numbers for different years which I doubt, no wonder why they stopped making the CZ 357 magnums they did not sell hardly any of them in the 3-4 year run!

I purchased my model 715 new In August 2015. Mine has a three digit serial number. It came with the Hogue rubber grip with the DW logo. Sometime after I bought the revolver, CZ was selling the Rubber Hogues with DW logo on the website and I bought an extra one. No I do not want to sell it.
