Any recommendations/photos of GP100 grips? I am not a fan of the Hogues and would like to find something similar to, or maybe slightly larger than, the old style grips Ruger used to use.

The old style grips are available from the Ruger online store.
I think you need to add the grip locator pin that goes in the grip stud.

For starters, I'll try those old style panel grips. I like the similar grip on the SP101.

The smaller grips do fit smaller hands better and look better to me.
My daughter loves shooting my GP 100 6". .38 specials in it.
When I set her up with a box of 50 rounds she wont give it up till the box is empty.

Just to clear things up a little. The full size older grips are actually a little bigger than the Hogues that come on the gun now but the smaller old style grips that came on the fixed sight guns, also called compac grips, are smaller than the Hogues. 8) 8)CigarGuy said:

I have some Eagle Grips, I have for my GP 100. They have been custom fit to my Gp 100. They are still too big for my hand, I really screwed up 70.00 for the grips, shipping and then shipping back another70.00. I going to change them back to Hogue I don't live too far from the Hogue. I think there called revolver grips fom Eagle really nice just dont work for me ..I want to get rid of them.
In my opinion it is not simply a matter of bigger or smaller, but also a matter of configuration. I have small hands for an adult male and the factory Hogue grips were annoying in that my pinky finger sat on top of the ridge instead of in the groove intended for the pinky, not to mention that I found the grips to be ugly. The old style grips I bought from Brownells or Midway (I don't remember which) fit my hand well and are visually appealing. These are smooth and don't have the finger grooves, and the rosewood inserts are quite nice.
