I own a Ruger 1976 Bi-Centennial model 22 pistol. Ser. # 13-57682. It has a typical front sight and the standard fixed blade rear sight. It has the original stock Ruger plastic black grips on both sides with the Ruger medallion in the upper 1/3 of the left side panel. The right side grip is just a blank panel. Both the left and right side upper grip panel screws are really just about opposite of each other, but the lower panel screw on the left side is much lower then the grip panel screw that is on the right panel. Both grips are checkered. The magazine well needs to have magazines with the slide spring pin on the right side. My wife really enjoys plinking with this fine pistol, but, the grips are just eating up her hands even though its a 22. She could shoot all day except the grip panel checkering starts to eat at her hand as the day wears on. Now, for the big question-----I am looking for a good set of Hogue wraparound finger grip style grips...and all I have run across are types that are for the Mark I, II and III.....This model is not compatible with the "Standard" model, as this grip has the mounting screws holes in the grips are exactly across from each other, both on the top and bottom...Does anyone know of a Hogue grip that will fit this gun with the left grip panel mounting holes that are farther apart then the holes on the right side panel....if the even make one...If you have the exact model number of the grip product would be greatly appreciated if it's even possible or is my wife just yugo out of luck???
