Revolver recoil question

Yes, I know about Herret's custom grips. Not cheap, but a really good fit. I'm not going to go that route for a mere .38 Special, though (!)

And now that the PCR requirement has been lifted for short visits to the US, I can have stuff sent to my gf's place in Bellingham again :) :) :) I'm headed down there on Dec.7. No way I'm going on the first day (next Tuesday)- I want to wait until they've got the bugs worked out. She already has a birthday and a Christmas gift for me that have been collecting dust there and I've just ordered a couple of things :) Might even order a Hogue grip as they're cheaper on Amazon US.

I just hope everything hasn't washed away by a week Tuedsay. I woke up several times last night to the "Pineapple Express". 53º F and solid rain. Let's at least have some pineapples so we can make piña coladas!

Herretts is out of business I believe. Shame too, they made really nice "stocks". - dan
 
Herrett's is still very much alive. I read on another forum (maybe S&W but i can't find the post now) that they had never actually stopped, just slowed down.

Interesting. I had read somewhere else that they were shutting down due to a combination of age and less business. I hope you're correct though, I own quite a few Herretts stocks, and they are very well made. - dan

This may be the post I saw. October 15, 2020

I just got off the phone with Herretts Stocks in Idaho Falls and the lady (Robin) told me that she was definitely still in business despite the rumors to the contrary. They are moving to a new location so the production will be slow for a while but they are still in business, that goodness. I am pretty sure my 25-5 is going to have to wear a set.

EDIT: Here's another thread on the S&W Forum about Herret's stocks
