Nice looking grips! I had the smaller ones on my S&W Model 65.5 as well. I replaced them with some rubber ones S&W had. I like them better. They gives me more to hold on to.

I definitely prefer larger grips on my DA revolvers, too. I do fine with the standard plow handle on SA revolvers, though. Been shooting SA revolvers for so long, now, anything but the plow handle feels odd. Even tried some Bisley SA revolvers and didn't like them. Went right back to the good old plow handle.

I didn't care for wheel guns till I bought my first Henry. After that my likes changed and I now own a few SA. That Cimarron would look good in my collection. Great shooting offhand!

You traveled back to 1947 and got that gun? Very cool!

Kidding aside, that is a sweet pistol.
