Redhawk aftermarket grip Identification help needed.

[TDF]

Folks, I bought a box of grips on a local auction from an old gunsmith. Lot's of Herrett's Shooting Star grips in the mix, along with some others, and some Ruger factory stuff, but there's this one set that fits a Redhawk that I haven't yet been able to ID, so I figured I'd see if anyone on here has a clue who would have made these. I'm guessing they date back at least a little ways as nothing in this box is brand new. They're a nice set of wraparound finger groove grips, and are rounded off at the bottom, but what makes me think we might be able to tie these down to a certain maker are the lines that are cut into the wood on the lowest 2 finger grooves and across the back from the bottom to where the backstrap starts.

Anybody ever seen anything like this before?

Here's some pics.

Thanks for your help.

You know ….. I have seen that style. You may be right with Herrett. Think the pair I had like that fit a Security Six though.
Mine were comfortable enough if memory serves …….

Nice find for sure.

Well there you have it. The answer was right there in front of my face the whole time. I was thinking these might not be Herrett's as I was comparing them to the 3 sets of S&W grips in the box, and none of them had these grooves cut into them. Hittman, your comment made me realize I hadn't compared them to the Security six grips in the box, and sure enough the boxed set of security six grips has those exact same 3 lines cut into them.

For a real retro blast check out the skip line checkering on these Security Six Herrett's grips.

Thanks Hittman, mystery solved.

I suspect they may be Sile Grips, don't know the history of the company but I've had a few sets and they're easily mistaken for Herretts. The same but just a little different.
