I'd like some recommendations/comments about some new grips for a Colt Diamondback - blue, 4 inch barrel.
Currently I have 3 sets of grips for the Diamondback. Factory original, Packmayr (sp?) and a set of factory that I sanded down to somewhat resemble Jordan stocks.
Currently the most shootable are the Packmayr grips. The factory grips slide down in my hand easily, even with mild wadcutter loads. The sanded down grips are about 1/2 way inbetween. I may take a bit more of the thickness (width) of the sanded grips out so that they more closely follow the form of the Packmayrs.
Still, the Diamondbacks are pretty little guns and I would like to put some grips on that esthetically enhance the gun, yet are still shootable with moderate to full power loads.
I'd appreciate any and all suggestions and/or comments based on personal experience.
