Aren’t the standard 4.25” model's grips available? I would think they’d fit the 3” gun.mloamiller wrote: Sat Oct 31, 2020 7:17 am I'm thinking of purchasing the 3" barrel Colt King Cobra. It comes with the Hogue Overmolded grip, but I would prefer wood grips. Does anyone know if wood grips are available for this model? They seem to come standard on the 4.25" barrel model.
I would check with the Altamont people. Their grips look very nice, and a good price too.The Annoyed Man wrote: Sat Oct 31, 2020 2:06 pmAren’t the standard 4.25” model's grips available?

When I bought my TRR8 from Carlson1, it came with a beautiful set of wood grips, an even prettier set of micarta grips, and the factory original Hogue grips. I put the Hogues back on. They aren't as nice, but they work great at controlling recoil.WildBill wrote: Sat Oct 31, 2020 2:51 pmI would check with the Altamont people.

That said, mloanmiller might find himself going back to the Hogue grips after shooting a few rounds.
My Colt Python came with wooden grips that I replaced with Hogue grips.
I like the look of the wood grips, but the checkering can bite into your hands with .357 Mag loads.
I bought a Colt Detective Special from Carlson1 that came factory grips as well as a pair of beautiful rosewood grips.The Annoyed Man wrote: Sat Oct 31, 2020 6:40 pmWhen I bought my TRR8 from Carlson1, it came with a beautiful set of wood grips, an even prettier set of micarta grips, and the factory original Hogue grips.
