Melvin Tyler's T-Grip Adapters

Well, I received my two Tyler T-Grip Adapters in the mail today!

No cute little boxes (

) but the same high polished finish, copper "U" clip for mounting, and even the same embossed (?) Tyler lettering on the side (maybe it's chemical etching?). They fit perfectly!

You'll notice I ordered the "Colt Old Model made before 1941" model 20A #7 rather than the S&W model. I found out years ago that I liked the fit of the 20A #7 better than their S&W 20A #3 grip adapter for my S&W K-frame revolvers. I usually discard the "U" clip and mount them with a single screw into the front grip strap.

The 20A #3 is wider than the #7, and wraps back farther than the #7. I like the way the #7 is thinner and takes up less room.

Order/check mailed 3 Oct, received 24 Nov. 52 days...Not any kind of record, but welcome regardless!
