Hi everyone,

I recently purchased a Monson Dan Wesson 15-2 for a good price. It looks nearly unfired and is in good shape except for a fair amount of holster wear on the bluing. Kind of strange since it's a 6 inch gun, possible police gun? Have put about 300 rounds thru it so far and plan for it to be my primary shooter since I'm going to be reloading .357.

It has the original square butt style wood grips, which I will probably want to change out for something else, since I have extremely large hands. If anyone can recommend a good set of grips for above XL glove size I'd appreciate it. Not a fan of finger grooves or rubber. Maybe something like a round butt j frame panel grip but larger.

Thanks,

Cam

I would still try the Houge moulded rubber grips. They are really comfortable and have that little bit that supports the heavy revolver using the the bottom of your palm. They arent expensive either.

Welcome aboard Cam .. sounds like you're in the right spot. I've got small hands, so can't help on the grip issue, but someone will.

Welcome to the Forum, Cam!

I highly recommend LB Custom Grips if you need a special size or type of grip at a reasonable price. LB can make what you need. Just click on his ad to the right.
