    Have you tried the manufacturer ?

    They can be very slow getting the order to you. Outdated website.

    B-K grips makes a plastic copy at a cheaper price. Ordered a couple a few years ago for my carry pieces. No problems, fit well and look good.

    I have used the T grips for over 40 years. work great for me, especially on a carry gun. No sticky rubber grip that can slow up your draw, keeps the piece small for concelment.

    the S&W forums are filled with a magnitude of horror storie with Tyler's taking a year for delivery - ihave seen used ones for sale on those forums for $80.00 to $100.00 in the past -

    Hmm… I can only find L and K frame sizes from Robert sons unless I’m overlooking them, I am trying to avoid ordering new from Tyler t because of the horror stories I’ve read about waiting a year and never getting shipped. I saw the BK grips version and I may end up going that route, I’m guessing they are plastic?

    I bought one of those for a Taurus 327 which is very close to a S&W j-frame. I needed to fit it to the Taurus a bit with a dremel but the finished product looked and functions well. It was $26.00 well spent.

    they are currently listed for the J frames at Robertsons - had to search different categories but they are there, but not in same section as the K+L frame ones - they are aluminum just like the Tyler ones -

    I have old Tylers on two Smith 36's, BK on another and they are just fine replacements.
