The Smith and Wesson 38 Special Hand Ejector was also known as
the Military and Police or M&P model, and became the Model 10 and
during the 1940's, was called the Victory model in a rougher
war-time finish with plain wood grips. These grips fit all the
earlier versions of what was to be known as the K-frame
revolver with square butt.
Be sure to measure the over-all height of your existing
grip and compare to the specifications. There is a later,
longer frame that your gun may
have, and if so, you would want one of the longer K-frame
grips listed here, rather than this shorter grip.
The plain grips look good in aged ivory with an inset medallion
of up to 5/8 inch diameter. The smaller medallions such as
the 1/2 inch gold cross can be mounted in the circle area
next to the hammer, replacing the factory logo (which was
not present in Victory models anyway).
This grip will require minor sanding around the edges for
the best fit, and location of the grip pin hole. Tap out the
locator pin from the frame, hold one grip panel up to the frame
and align it carefully, then mark through the pin hole to
spot the position for drilling the locator hole. Do this with
both grips. Measure the pin and choose a drill just slightly
undersize. Drill the locating hole carefully and your grips
will snap onto the frame precisely. The slightly undersized hole
can be gently enlarged by turning the drill bit by hand with a
slight side pressure, if necessary.
Here are the grip dimensions:
- Height of round top above ears = .375 inch
- Base to screw hole center = 1.158 inch
- Base to top, max. height = 2.875 inch
- Width across the base = 1.80 inch
- Width across top (ear to ear) = 1.011 inch
- Width across grip at screw hole = 1.49 inch
- Base to front ear (corner) = 2.26 inch
- Base to rear ear (corner) = 2.82 inch
