You will be very impressed with the quality and fit of RW Gripframes. They do need a little fitting and I like to knock off the square edges, best to have a Ruger Gripframe for reference of how they "soften" some of the edges. Take your time, and expect a lot of on & off…😉

This is a Super Hunter grip frame, same size as the one you referenced but with the round trigger guard vs the DRAGOON Squared Guard, I like the look of the Dragoon but it busts my knuckles in the bigger calibers, thus I stick to it on the 22-32's.

Pictured here is a 50th Anniversary Flattop (44 Mag) that originally had a thinner smaller Colt size XR3, too small for me, so I Supered it. Hunter Grip Frame and added a Super Hammer.

I also followed the rear curve of the hammer, and took off the plow flair at the bottom of the back strap (straightened) to emulate the XR3.

Ronnie has been turning out some EXCELLENT grip frames,, as well as other parts many of us want, need, or prefer. Top quality & offerings not available from the factory.
I have a pair of his "Bradshaw Bisley" g/f's, a set of his grips, and some sights & such.
HIGHLY recommend them.

Ronnie makes a plethora of styles- something to fit every hand. It's because of his gripframes that I went "Ruger Crazy" a couple years back. I have about 5 of his gripframes and another 2 on the way. I really like the feel of the "Dealer", but I'm excited to see what the newest one feels like once I get it. It's a Super Blackhawk with a .300 longer grip frame and a Bisley trigger guard.

This one still needs to be fitted. It's a bit of a custom, not on the website. Bison Finger Groove Large w/ Bisley trigger guard.

One thing I guarantee you is that you will be amazed at the quality of what Ronnie produces. He also makes amazing hammers and triggers, and a great rear sight done with Fermin.

Ronnie also builds complete full custom guns.

I helped talk him into the Biznana frame that duplicates the BFR bisley so I could use a consistent grip between the Ruger and MRI guns. But it still looked funny, so we came up with the Hager BB5 he named after me. Many of the frames are named after the creators handles from the Single Actions forum.

If you have an idea for a frame or hammer style, run it past him. He may like it. I'm waiting for the Redhawk Bisley hammer he's working on now.
