Grips that Mimic Tyler-T/Grip Adapter

Hey folks. I have an old Pachmayr grip adapter on the Model 10 snubbie that I carry. I like the grip it gives me and I really like it doesn't have a finger groove/swell thing like the Tyler-T grip adapter. I have small hands and finger grooves never fit me.

However, my grip adapter is plastic and rattles a little, and my stock grips are pretty beat up.

So, is there a grip out there that mimics the size and shape of what I have now? Basically, I want wood grips that don't cover the backstrap or the butt of the grip frame. I don't want finger grooves.

Any options out there?

Here's what I have now.

BLUE MAGNUM stocks in COLORADO can make you a set of Skeeter Skelton thin stocks that can do EXACTLY what you are asking for. NOT CHEAP !! Good stuff never is. Tell Tedd you want a set of SS stocks that feel like a set of factory MAGNA stocks with a Mershon grip adapter.
 
I wouldn't call those grips "beat up"...they look good to me. Are they serial'd to the revolver? They often are.
A fingertip of boiled linseed oil makes them look good, even if beat.
I don't know if you tried a T-grip, but the finger groove is pretty subtle, in use.
I have it on my Model 15-3 and my Model 38 Jframe.
I've tried different grips, but I keep coming back to the T-grip.
 
I hated Tyler T-grips when I was younger. As an older person, now I see their advantage. You still get less bulk with the Tyler T-grip that you would with bulky synthetic grips.
 
amd - That picture doesn't reveal all the flaws. There's a some chips and cracks and sort of pulling away from the frame on one side near the hammer. I don't really mind that they are worn, it means I don't have to baby them.

I like the stock look, I just don't like that rattle and the plastic-y feel of the Pachmayr. Maybe I need to try a Tyler-T since it's made of metal.
