Grips for the grip people

[elk hunter]

Silver and gold 1935 Mexican grips. These came from a Mariposa game warden who was a good friend. He had these made when he was in Mexico, the holster was made by him and was carried for some time working as a game warden back when they were hard working honest people. I'm not sure if this was the revolver he used in a gun fight with the 3 men that tried to kill him. The Warden is long since gone and I will always miss the old gentleman. He had one heck of a Winchester collection and was a very good old school gunsmith which was his retired profession.




Moderators, if your going to move this one to some dead end hole just dump it and ban me to.

Nice group, with his pistol, holster, and grips. I really like this type of been-there, done that rigs that have been together a long and are identified.

To your Game Warden dig;
Its a no win job.....I can't imagine the guff those GW's have to put up with. Personally, I've never run into what I would call a dick GW...they have all been pretty good....maybe because I know the rules and wouldn't think of breaking them.
