A couple pair of Sportsman

Just got my 2nd set of Jay Scott black pearl grips, and had to show them off.

A brace of braces!

Thanks guys!
I found my other set of white pearl grips, and changed them out with the yellowish set on the 6" Sportsman.
They look much better!

Jim,
Those new grips look great.  If you keep dressing them up that nice, you're gonna have to take them to the dance!

Yeah,
A much nicer match.
When I bought this set, they didn't come with a screw, it' s like a 4/40 thread or something.
I put them in a drawer, and when I bought the yellowish set, I couldn't find the nice white ones anymore!
Just had to do some digging!

Actually I really like the original grips too, it's just kind of fun to "pimp" something up. 8)
