I have a set of Uncle Mike's combat grips on my round butt 686SSR which I love. It's as if they were made for my hand. I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to get them for all of my Smith revolvers, which include several K-frame square butts. I checked the Smith website and found nothing there. I also googled "Uncle Mike's", also nada. I'm wondering if they even make 'em and, if so, where I could find them. Any help would be appreciated.
Does Uncle Mike's make Smith square butt combat grips?

Uncle Mike's was unable to come to a new licensing agreement with the grip designer, so they stopped making them.
Watch Ebay and the gun auction sites.
S&W "may" have some old stock still available, email them.

I picked up a set of Sile grips for a square butt Ruger Security six. They are GREAT! Unfortunately they are out of stock for square butt S&W K frames. In your search for the uncle mikes, dont overlook the siles! Here is the link anyways http://www.cdnninvestments.com/smweklrihawr.html

Several years ago I got 3 sets of Uncle Mike's boot grips for S&W K-frame square butts. Perfect fit for me, so naturally when I went looking for them for additional revolvers they were nowhere to be found.
One day I was looking at Butler Creek grips, and found their boot grip to be identical to the Uncle Mike's. Can't tell the difference side by side. I just assumed Uncle Mike's spun off a subsidiary, but I guess that was wrong. Nevertheless, you might check out Butler Creek grips.

I checked them out on line and no one seems to be offering Butler Creek revolver grips, leading me to believe that they, too, have been phased out. I guess I'll just have to keep my eyes out for old Uncle Mike's or Butler Creeks on Gunbroker and at the shows. I have a desk drawer full of various wooden grips and I have Hogue rubber monogrips on a couple of my bigger revolvers. The Hogues are ok but they just don't fit my hand as well as do those Uncle Mike's! In fact, nothing does, darn it.

Butler Creek is another brand name carried by the company that also own Uncle Mike's and a number of other companies.
