Hi all,
I have a Rossi M33, .38 special snubby blued, with factory wood grips.
I have been told that it is *almost* a carbon copy of a Smith Model 36 (square-butt, J-frame), BUT not quite...
I want to put some "combat rubber" grips on the thing, with finger grooves.
Nobody carries aftermarket grips for the ROSSI, but there's a boatload out there for S&W... ROUND butt J-frames.
I saw a post somewhere (can't remember) about a guy who was having his J-frame converted/modified from square butt to a round-butt...
If I could do something along this line, maybe I could make some of the aftermarket combat grips work on the Rossi...
I know: alot of "if's"...
Or should I just sell it, and put the proceeds toward something else? What's it worth (it's in good shape?)
Thanks for any/all input!
