    'much larger grip very welcome' Errrrr Euroarms grips may not be to your liking though, as its very much as the original.
    Try Pietta's model their grips are usually larger.

    Oh, the Pietta R&S has bigger grips? Interesting.

    Thanks guys.
    Yes but apart from that, Mrs Lincoln, what did you think of the performance?

    The Remington Pietta has larger grips not sure about the R&S - no experience with this pistol, though from what I've read its an excellent pistol. From the pics in the Kranks catalogue the grips do look bigger on the R&S.

    Well, I'm more or less decided. I'm going for the London grey R&S I think. It's not stainless, but having fired another R&S extensively, I notice it can go on all day without gunging up and the grips are very comfy.

    You can always have it nitro converted No gumming up then.

    Its also possible to change the grips on a Ruger Old Army. I use some rubber Pachmayr grips on mine.

    I prefer the walnut grips as they let the gun swivel smoothly in the hand thus reducing felt recoil.

    I have used stainless Pietta Remington New Model Army revolvers for some years, winning a couple of competitions with them. One with target sights and one with the original sights.
